  • Abstract
    This paper discusses a research effort to determine the effect that Software Process Maturity has on software development effort. Case studies to date report a cumulative positive effect when increasing the Process Maturity on a project and across an Organization. A new software cost estimation model, COCOMO 2.0, is used to account of all of the factors that influence effort thus permitting the isolation of Process Maturity´s effects. The results of this research will identify a short-term gain from investing in software process improvement
