White Paper: Using Function Points to Measure Reusable Software

The first purpose of this paper is to demonstrate how the IFPUG method can be used to quantify reusable software from the perspective of both the component developers and the applications end user.

White Paper Applying FPA to Data Warehouse Analytics Systems

This paper acts as a reference for those complex scenarios in Business Analytics, which are not covered in prior IFPUG white paper on Data Warehousing [6].

WHITE PAPER

White Paper: SNAP Overview and Application

While function points size the functional user requirements per ISO guidelines, SNAP takes into consideration things which are: a) Non-functional as per ISO guidelines & are b) Not counted under the function point method.

White Paper: IFPUG Report Generator Rule

The intent of this document is to present a cohesive set of hints on how to approach applying Function Point Analysis (FPA) in establishing the function point size of a Query or Report Generator, whether included within the boundary of another application.

White Paper: Using the General Systems Characteristics with SNAP

This paper discusses the relations between function point sizing, SNAP point sizing, and the General Systems Characteristics (GSCs), and suggests how to avoid an overlap between SNAP and the Value Adjusted Factor (VAF).

WHITE PAPER

White Paper: IFPUG Presentation SNAP Beta Test Results

Forecasting the cost to write and produce software has been transformed from an art into largely a science through a methodology called function point analysis. Function point analysis measures the flow of data through the software application.
