Abstract

Software project estimation plays a crucial role in the successful planning and execution of software development projects. However, it is often challenging to accurately predict project scope, effort, and schedule due to various factors such as evolving requirements, changing technologies, and unpredictable risks. This research paper aims to analyze the different techniques used for software project estimation and explore the challenges associated with them. By understanding these techniques and challenges, software development teams can improve their estimation processes, leading to more successful project outcomes.
