Review text

In spite of the efforts of the IFPUG group to standardise the counting of Function-Points, there is still a lot of room left for interpretation. This is especially true when it comes to counting Function-Points in modern client server or web-based applications. There is no standard means of identifying inputs and outputs in such systems. The author proposes here a tool supported method for extracting Function-Point counts from C++ and Java Source-Code. This method has been applied and calibrated to the GEOS Stock Brokerage system under development in Vienna, where the author is currently engaged. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0976.68584].
