Line 1:
The ability to accurately estimate the time/cost taken for a [[project]] to come to its successful conclusion has been a serious problem for [[software engineering|software engineers]]. The use of repeatable, clearly defined and well understood [[software development process]] has in recent years shown itself to be the most effective method of gaining useful [[historical data]] that can be used for statistical estimation. In particular, the act of sampling more frequently, coupled with the loosening of constraints between parts of a project, has allowed more accurate estimation and more rapid development times.
