Profiter des avantages d’un monde de plus en plus mondialisé et plus accessible n’est pas un résultat évident pour tous les acteurs économiques.

Abstract:
Software project management is one of the most critical activities in modern software development projects. Without realistic and objective management, the software development process cannot be managed in an effective way. There are three general problems in project management: effort estimation is not accurate, actual status is difficult to understand, and projects are often geographically dispersed. Estimating software development effort is one of the most challenging problems in project management. Various attempts have been made to solve the problem; so far, however, it remains a complex
