Functional Size Measurement Applied to UML-Based User Requirements

Overview There is a growing interest in applying standardized methods for Functional Size Measurement (FSM) to Functional User Requirements (FUR) based on models in the Unified Modelling Language (UML). No consensus exists on this issue. The paper analyzed the demands that FSM places on FURs. The paper proposes a requirements space with several levels of refinement, and show how UML can be used to specify FURs at these levels. FSM can be applied at the product level of UML-based FURs. The paper discusses their experience for three case studies and with two FSM methods: Function Point Analysis (FPA) and COSMIC-Full Function Points (CFFP).
