  • Method and apparatus for predicting project cost performance
    Patent number: 8185428
    Abstract: A computer implemented method and model to perform project scenario simulations to facilitate understanding the risks associated with various factors such as, for example, project schedules and volatility in the design requirements/specifications. In one example, the model includes a statistical definition of a relationship between the cost performance index for the model and project parameters, such as requirements volatility and lifecycle overlap.

  • Method of and system for estimating the cost and effort associated with preparing for and conducting a CMMI appraisal
    Publication number: 20080313102
    Abstract: A method of and system for estimating the cost of and effort associated with preparing for and conducting a CMMI appraisal. A set of variables affecting a CMMI appraisal are input. Prior CMMI appraisal data is determined. The costs and effort associated with preparing for and conducting different stages of a CMMI appraisal are automatically calculated based on the inputs and the prior CMMI appraisal data. The costs and effort calculated are totaled and may be used to generate a report.
