  Tactical Leadership : Weblog
The CoCoMo model was developed by reviewing many projects, from small to large, embedded to interactive, and an equation was developed that best fit the empirical data.
CoCoMo also predicted that the project could have been completed in about a year with a little more than three people.
Using CoCoMo on historical data is a nice confirmation of the model.

 COCOMO
Consider the form of the estimating equations (as explained in the COCOMO Overview).
COCOMO II is defined using intermediate calculations, but the COCOMO 81 models let you choose between the Intermediate mode and the Detailed mode.
COCOMO II.1998 was renamed to COCOMO II.1999 and then to COCOMO II.2000, so all of those models are identical.

USC COCOMO II.1997 is calibrated to 83 data points (historical software development projects), using a 10% weighted-average approach (35kb) to blending empirical data with expert opinion to calibrate the model parameters.
COCOMO 81 is a model that allows one to estimate the cost, effort, and schedule when planning a new software development activity, according to software development practices that were commonly used in the 1970s through the 1980s.

 COCOMO -- Software Effort and Schedule Estimation
The COCOMO Model is the most widely used and accepted of the cost / effort estimation models.This model as a size-driven model is highly dependent upon the the manager's ability to estimate the size of the software system at an early stage.
COCOMO avoids estimating labour costs in dollars because of the large variations between organizations in what is included in labour costs and because SM is a more stable unit than dollars.
COCOMO assumes that the requirement specification is not substantially changed after the plans and requirement phase.Any significant modification should be covered by a revised cost estimate.

USC COCOMO II.1997 is calibrated to 83 data points (historical software development projects), using a 10% weighted-average approach (35kb) to blending empirical data with expert opinion to calibrate the model parameters.
Once a calibrated version of COCOMO II was finally released to the public, the need to provide a single, concise, authoritative resource documenting the model and explaining the use of the USC COCOMO II software became apparent.
COCOMO 81 is a model that allows one to estimate the cost, effort, and schedule when planning a new software development activity, according to software development practices that were commonly used in the 1970s through the 1980s.

 Software Project Cost Estimates Using COCOMO II Model - The Code Project - Application Design
In general, COCOMO II estimates project cost, derived directly from person-months effort, by assuming the cost is basically dependent on total physical size of all project files, expressed in thousands single lines of code (KSLOC).
COCOMO II internal parameters such as parameters for evaluation of personnel capabilities/experiences, used project tools and others are obviously important for project cost estimates, but usually are not a subject of cost communications with stakeholder.
There are well-approbated COCOMO II tools on the market that calculate these parameters for you, asking questions about particular project in natural language, such as “How experienced is the development team?” or “How tough is the project schedule?” and, thus, hiding model details in the background.

 Overview of COCOMO
The COCOMO cost estimation model is used by thousands of software project managers, and is based on a study of hundreds of software projects.
The most fundamental calculation in the COCOMO model is the use of the Effort Equation to estimate the number of Person-Months required to develop a project.
In the COCOMO II model, some of the most important factors contributing to a project's duration and cost are the Scale Drivers.

The Advanced COCOMO model incorporates all characteristics of the intermediate version with an assessment of the cost driver's impact on each step (analysis, design, etc.) of the software engineering process.
Because the COCOMO model assumes considerably lower LOC/pm levels than those discussed in SEPA, 5/e, the results are not surprising.
To be useful in the context of the example problem, the COCOMO model would have to be recalibrated to the local environment.

A big part of the COCOMO literature exists to suggest ways to find good values for those constants without the use of a time machine.
Notice that even with those constants, COCOMO is of no use to you unless you also already know how many LinesOfCode you're going to have to write.
Accurate estimation by COCOMO then appears to rely on having a good knowledge of the workings of your software factory by analysing a sufficient number of previous projects.
