programming A term used by
COCOMO to describe a project
that is developed in a familiar, stable environment.
The product is similar to previously developed products. Most
people connected with the project have extensive experience in
working with related systems and have a thorough understanding
of the project. The project contains a minimum of innovative
data processing architectures or
algorithms. The product
requires little innovation and is relatively small, rarely
greater than 50,000
DSIs.
