Since this time many efforts were done in the improvement of the software development techniques. Barry Boehm in 1981, and reflected the software development practices of these days. The word 'constructive' implies that the complexity of the model can be understood because of the openness of the model, which permits exactly to know WHY the model gives the estimates it does. The original COCOMO stands for Constructive Cost Model. Boehm postulated that any software development project can be. 19 10.11 Free COCOMO II Software (Extensions).
