It's suggested from observations, the Cone of Uncertainty (CoU) is not a valid model of how uncertainty behaves in software development projects. In all software development businesses, showing up late and over budget has a direct impact on the bottom line. . Carol Brennan, John Wiley & Sons, 2006.

Accuracy - how close is the estimate to the actual value? So in the end, if we are to make a decision in the presence of uncertainty, we MUST make estimates to develop a reliable shipping date while producing an accurate and precise estimate of the cost, schedule, and technical performance of the product shipped on that date.

Kozlowski & Ilgen (2006) describe this reciprocity as “process begets structure, which in turn guides process”. Wang et al (2006) studied software teams tasked with ERP implementations and found that cohesive teams performed significantly better than less-cohesive teams. Closing Words. Bradley et.

More recent analyses have shown that this bias isn’t as fundamental as previously thought (Malle, 2006). The Dunning-Kruger effect manifests when people without any experience with software development make strong claims about how easy a particular change should be. Closing words. How to reduce this bias. Samaniego, F.

There's been a rash of conjectures about all kinds of bad business, project, and software development (agile and traditional) management ideas of late. This is a closed loop system optimization process applied to all the projects we work. And money in the bank is what software development is about. Is this normal?
