The planned uncertainty not only needs to decrease over time passing, but this reduction diminishes any impacts of risk on the decision-making processes. Seems there is still some confusion (intentional or accidental) about the Cone of Uncertainty and its purpose and its use in software development. This letter states.

In a previous post, Why Johnny Can't Estimate , mentioned some resources for estimating, the principles of business and technical management that demand estimates be made to make decisions, and background on the sources of uncertainty, that create risk, that require estimating to increase the probability of project success.

For software development systems like Kanban, which is production line-centric, Litle's Law tells us. λ = average production rate of complete software components. λ = average production rate of complete software components. There are two fundamental assumptions for Little's Law to work in the software development domain".

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. Then there is some analysis.

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.

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. But when some statement is made about risk, estimating, performance modeling, or the like - always ask for references. I'm not expecting anyone to read all these books.

Here's another trail being ridden by our son at Nationals in 2013. The notion of Control is missed used in software development projects. They have to be estimated in the start. A quick estimate is needed to decide what to do. Estimating on projects is part of the close loop control system. Good question.

The Cone is a project management framework describing the uncertainty aspects of estimates (cost and schedule) and other project attributes (cost, schedule, and technical performance parameters). the beginning of a project, comparatively little is known about the product or work results, and so estimates are subject to large uncertainty.

And so this is where agile kind of fits in and isn’t just necessarily only for software development. So individuals and interactions over processes and tools. And remember, agile is kind of born out of the need for technical project management or in many cases, software development.
