Software requirement change effort estimation model for software development phase

Software requirement changes are a typical phenomenon in any software development project. Software requirement changes occur at all stages of software development life cycle. Allowing too many changes might cause delay in project delivery. Therefore, this study aims to improve the accuracy of softw...
