3. Project Overview
The main objective of this project is to design and develop an Airline Reservation System.
This project is mainly intended for the customers, who use the airline websites to make reservations on flights.
This system will be implemented in C#.NET and SQL Server 2000 will act as the database.

4. Project Overview continued
The main motivation for the project comes from my interest to learn new technologies, like C# and ASP.NET.
Creating a web-based online application would give me more experience using these technologies.
Database design was also one of my major objective for choosing this project.

10. Cost Estimation Model
The Constructive Cost Model, also known as the COCOMO model ,has been designed in 1981 by Barry Boehm, to give an estimate of number of man months it will take to develop a software product.
The model also estimates the development schedule for the project in months and gives us a schedule distribution for all the major phases of a project.

11. Cost Estimation Model continued
The Airline Reservation System project has an average complexity and fair flexibility. Thus, this project is classified as an organic project under the COCOMO model.
The equations as they are modified for the organic projects are as follows:
Effort = 3.2 * EAF * (Size) ^ 1.05
Time = 2.5 * (Effort) ^ 0.38 where
Effort = number of staff months (PM)
EAF = effort adjustment factor
Size = number of lines of code for completed product. It is measures in KLOC (thousands of lines of code)
Time = total number of months

12. Cost Estimation Model Continued
Effort = 3.2 * 0.45 * 3.0 ^ 1.05 = 4.56 staff months
Time = 2.5 * 4.56 ^ 0.38 = 4.44 months (development time)
