Abstract
The mini-model method for modeling software sizing for a given software development methodology is presented. The model is based on the input and output products of the life-cycle activities and can be used to predict the level of effort required to complete those activities. Issues discussed include productivity metrics and the parametric modification of mini-models. The model is applied to the US Army Worldwide Military Command and Control System Information System software development project.<>
