Function Point Analysis & Estimation

The document discusses function point analysis and iterative process estimation for a software project. It analyzes entities to determine their complexity and calculates function points. It then estimates the project timeline using an iterative process model, categorizing components as easy, simple, medium, or complex. It factors in time for prototypes, iterations, completion, and demonstrations/reviews. The total estimated time is 194.73 days.
