Scope:

This part of ISO/IEC 14143 defines the fundamental concepts of Functional Size Measurement (FSM). This part of ISO/IEC 14143 does NOT provide detailed rules on how to:
 

  • measure Functional Size of software using a particular method
  • use the results obtained from a particular method
  • select a particular method. 


This part of ISO/IEC 14143 is applicable when determining if a method for sizing software is an FSM Method. 

It does not prevent the development of various methods, but rather provides a basis for assessing whether a particular method conforms to FSM. 

This part of ISO/IEC 14143 is intended for use by those persons associated with the acquisition, development, use, support, maintenance and audit of software.

Project need:

To review the Standard within the required 5 year period.
