Function Point Method have been applied to measure software size estimation in industry because it supports to estimate the software's size by user's view not developer's. However, the current function point method has some problems for example complexity's upper limit etc. So, In this paper, an enhanced function point model. Micro FP model, was suggested. Using this model, software effort estimation can be more efficiently because this model has some regression equation. This model specially can be applied to estimate in detail the large application system's size Analysis results show that measured software size by this Micro FP model has the advantage with more correlative between the one of LOC, as of 10 applications operated in an large organization.

소프트웨어의 측정은 소프트웨어의 생명주기 초기에 분석되어 규모와 비용의 예측에 도움을 주어야 한다. 초기에는 정확한 LOC 기반 규모예측이 어려워 기능 점수 기반의 측정에 의하여 예측할 수 있다. 그러나 현재의 기능 점수 기반 측정은 모든 시스템에 획일화되어 있어 시스템의 특성을 반영할 수 없으며, IFPUG에서 제시한 일반 시스템 특성은 웹 기반 어플리케이션에서 사용자의 인지도가 매우 낮다. 본 논문에서는 웹 기반 어플리케이션 중에 동적 웹사이트에 특화된 시스템 특성 집합 및 영향도 측정 방법을 제시한다. 이 요소를 근거로 동적 웹사이트의 시스템 특성을 분석하여 기능 정수의 값 조정 인자에 반영하고 실제 시스템을 대상으로 조정된 기능 점수를 산정한다.

성공적인 소프트웨어 프로젝트를 목표로 합리적인 계획을 수립하기 위하여 프로젝트의 전체 규모에 대한 신속하고 정확한 견적이 중요해지고 있다. IFPUG의 FPA 견적방식은 이미 검증되어 널리 사용되고 있으나, 복잡성과 모호성으로 인하여 실제 SI 업체의 견적 수행에는 어려움이 있으며 견적작업의 고비용을 초래하고 있다. 본 논문은 기존 FPA 방식의 문제점을 지적하고 이를 개선한 PFP 모델을 제시함으로써 기존보다 쉽고 효과적이며 효율적인 기능점수 견적을 가능하게 하였다.

The purpose of this study is to present a new function point estimation approach for the Object-Oriented information systems. In order to fulfill this purpose, we first review the literature on Function Point Analysis of IFPUG, Unified Modeling Language, and Unified Process. Then, we derive a method and rules for estimating Function Points based on Use Cases and Class Diagrams. To analyze the appropriateness of the proposed approach, we conduct the empirical testing. 143 use cases are collected from production, marketing, distribution, sales, and other areas from the Object-Oriented systems development projects. We compare our new approach with the existing methods that are usually used for traditional systems development projects. The results show that our proposed approach is more appropriate for the Object-Oriented environment.

Software cost estimation is an important both for buyers and sellers(developers). We reviewed domestic and foreign researches and practices on software cost estimation with function point method comprehensively, In this paper, we derived four promising alternative function point models. They are an IFPUG(International Function Point User Group)-based model(Model I), a shorthand model for client/sever software systems(Model II), a data-oricnted model for relatively large software projects(Model III), and a general- purpose function point model for non business application softwares as well as business applications(Model IV). Empirical data shows that Model I, II, and IV are very useful function point models. In particular, model II and IV look very useful models since they are concise and accurate. These models can be incorporated in a new improved guideline for software cost estimation. General opinion survey shows that Model I, II and IV are preferable. There are no significant differences in preference between buyers and sellers. The survey also shows that users think function point method is better than step(line of code)-oriented cost estimation methods in many ways including objectivity and estimation accuracy.

국내기업에서 대부분의 정보시스템이 정보시스템 수명주기로 불 때 운영단계로 진입하고 조직의 정보시스템의존도 및 시스템규모가 점점 늘어남에 따라서 정보시스템의 운영과정에서 발생되는 소프트웨어 유지보수에 투입되는 비용도 증가되고 있다. 그러나 소프트웨어유지보수 프로젝트에 소요되는 투입인력 규모예측에 관련된 연구는 소프트웨어개발부문에 비해 적은 것이 사실이다. 본 연구에서는 유지보수프로젝트를 대상 소프트웨어의 규모는 IFPUG에서 개발된 기능점수기법(function point model)을 적용하여 산정하고, 특정 소프트웨어유지보수 프로젝트 생산성에 영향을 미치는 유지보수환경, 프로덕트, 투입인력 등 3개 영역에서 도출된 총 10개 특성을 보정요소로 설정한 후, 유지보수프로젝트의 소요인력 규모를 추정하기 위한 비선형회귀모형을 제시하고 있다. 실제 수행된 26개 유지보수프로젝트로부터 수집한 실적데이터를 이용하여 이 모형을 실증 분석한 결과 유의한 모형임이 밝혀졌다.

Recently, development paradigm of information system is turning into object oriented and component based, and this methodology is leading the software industry. To acclimatize aptly to this trend, users demand the assessment of software expenses to change with the appropriate model of computing costs of the environment, and some people are actually studying the concept of Object Oriented Function Point and UCP method. Especially, Object Oriented Function Point Measurement Process has good points in overcoming the bound of LOC and the existing the Function Point Measurement Process because Object Oriented Function Point Measurement Process is applicable to the early stage of development project mainly with the used cases, and valid to the life long period as the each stage of software products develops, and always understandable to communicate with users by the UML mark rules. Accordingly, this research is to measure Functional Point at ROFP and AOFP in accordance with the development project of information system by the national defense CBD methodology procedures and UML Interrelation Analysis that are recently and widely used in the developmental environment of object oriented information system. Furthermore, this study suggests the measurement method to obtain Functional Point, and identifies service function and object/class function in the correlation analysis of use case and class based on the products and UML modeling via traditional FPA model and object oriented FPA model. Above all, this study is to demonstrate the improvement of traditional Function Point Measurement Process, IFPUG-CPM and software cost basis, and reveal Function Point Measurement Process, which is appropriate to the development of object oriented information system, and suggest the evaluation results of the compatibility through case studies.
