There are several methods and models to estimate this cost, and the main factors to take into consideration are the software size, interfaces, developing time, among others. This study shows an estimation from the economical point of view of the contribution of the software developed at the Agricultural Polytechnic of Manabí (ESPAM MFL) toward the society. For the purpose, the computer systems developed by the students at the computing school during five years were analyzed (from 2012 to 2016), based on the operability and the economic quantification. As a methodology, models COCOMO II and COSYSMO were carried out, after the development; although with limitations in the collecting of data for the valuation. By means of the field research it was determined that 33,6% of the software developed was installed. Carrying out the models above mentioned, it was estimated that about USD $344.033,00 and $504.194,00 with regard to the installed software, as a benefit handed to the society through its development; and between USD $1.023.907,00 and $1.500.578,00 the estimated cost of all the software developed. |
