Abstract
We combine the Mk-II Function Points method for software estimation wi th the ADISSA (architectural design of information systems based on st ructural analysis) methodology for systems analysis and design. The co mbined method, which is supported by a software tool, the ADISSA Estim ator, permits us to estimate software metrics such as size, effort (ma n-months) and duration (elapsed time) at the early stages of systems d evelopment: This is accomplished by basing the estimations on the prod ucts of a thorough system analysis and design process.
