Full Function Point measurement method (COSMIC-FFP) is too abstract and difficult to be applied to object-oriented software. By analyzing the notional relationship between main components of UML and main elements of COSMIC-FFP, we establish 22 measurement mapping rules, propose UML-Based COSMIC-FFP method and list the measurement process and measurement steps. An example is given and the results show that this method can measure the functional size of object-oriented software objectively and effectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
