This volume presents a selection of the presentations from the
first annual conference on Analytical Methods in Software
Engineering Economics held at The MITRE Corporation in McLean,
Virginia. The papers are representative of the issues that are of
interest to researchers in the economics of information systems and
software engineering economics. The 1990s are presenting software
economists with a particularly difficult set of challenges. Because
of budget considerations, the number of large new software
development efforts is declining. The primary focus has shifted to
issues relating to upgrading and migrating existing systems. In
this environment, productivity enhancing methodologies and tools
are of primary interest. The MITRE Software Engineering Analysis
Conference was designed to address some of th,~ new and difficult
challenges that face our profession. The primary objective of the
conference was to address new theoretical and applications
directions in Software Engineering Economics, a relatively new
discipline that deals with the management and control of all
segments of the software life-cycle. The discipline has received
much visibility in the last twenty-five years because of the size
and cost considerations of many software development and
maintenance efforts, particularly in the Federal Government. We
thank everyone who helped make this conference a success,
especially those who graciously allowed us to include their work in
this volume.
Software Engineering Economics is a relatively new discipline that
deals with all segments of the software life cycle. The discipline
has received much visibility in recent years because of the size
and cost considerations of many software development and
maintenance efforts. This book places additional emphasis on the
Federal Governments Information Resource Management initiative and
deals with related issues such as Business Re-engineering,
Functional Economic Analysis, Organizational Process Modelling and
the Economics of Reuse.
Cost analysis and estimating is a vital part of the running of all
organizations, both commercial and government. This volume
comprises the proceedings of the 1992 conference of the Society for
Cost Estimating and Analysis. Individual chapters are written by
experts in their respective fields. Consequently, the volume as a
whole provides an invaluable and up-to-date survey of the field.
