CORFOOS: Cost Reduction Framework for Object Oriented System

Abstract

There are many constraints in developing software for an organization, such as time and budget. Due to these constraints and intricacies of advanced software development technology, it has become very challenging to complete such projects. To make these projects cost-effective, this paper presents a cost reduction framework (CORFOOS) which works at three levels. At the first level, Intermediate Requirement Dependency Value (IRDV) of each requirement is determined by creating the intermediate requirements dependency graph (IRDG). At the second level, the requirements are categorised and finally at the third level,the testing parameters are determined by analyzing the requirements. To analyze the
requirements, the dependency model, interaction model, language specification model and fault model are used.
