The paper on the Cone of Uncertainty is used by many in the No Estimates community as an example of why estimates are of little use. In this paper, there is data that does not follow the Cone of Uncertainty, in that the uncertainty of the estimates does not reduce as the project proceeds. Thesis, George Mason University, 2010.

AHP was developed in the 1970s by Dr. Thomas Saaty. In our agile software development world, AHP is rarely found. This decision model for software development projects addressed: performance, cost, time, and risk. I came to AHP through a seminar by Dr. James T. A Cardinal number says how many of something there is.

For at least twenty years and counting, the world around us has become more and more software driven, and, as a result, more digital. Electric vehicles are about 50% software, in terms of value, whereas fossil fuel cars are mostly hardware. Banks have essentially been software developing organizations for a long time.

So here are some books, handbooks, and guides that sit on my shelf that are used pretty much all the time on the Software Intensive System of Systems we work on.

Estimating is a learned skill, used for any purpose from every-day life to management of projects.

And so this is where agile kind of fits in and isn’t just necessarily only for software development. And remember, agile is kind of born out of the need for technical project management or in many cases, software development. But it is clearly not limited to just software.

Estimation is part of project management. . The most important estimates for the project manager are related to time and cost. . Since it is easier to estimate small tasks, these estimates are often calculated and performed as point estimates, for example, a task will take 3 days. My proposal is don't estimate.
