Yes, you have to pay for them, but that cost is cheap compared to a naive and novice approach based on experimenting with other people's money. In all engineering worlds, from software engineering to bending metal for money, there is really nothing new under the sun. This solution is called Software Engineering.

DDSTOP The Saga Continues

Herding Cats

In our software-intensive system of systems domain, we develop proposals with 80% confidence of completing on time and on budget at the time of submission. The ±10% value has no context (as usual), but that range is certainly possible using the processes of probabilistic modeling of the project. . So how do we get ±10% accuracy?
