Case Study
A Requirements Based Cost Model
Lee Fischman - Senior Director of Development, Galorath Incorporated
Galorath is developing an expert system capable of translating just a few high level requirements into a detailed hardware estimate within SEER for Hardware. Using case based reasoning techniques to match requirements against previous cases, the system produces a SEER for Hardware project which can then be further refined. This system provides a means of rapidly building up new estimates, of evaluating concepts at an early stage, of improving the consistency of estimates, and more. A prototype has already proven effective in field use.
