Abstract
Since development processes for mobile applications (apps) are becoming more user centered and agile, effort and cost estimation for app development projects in large enterprises faces new challenges. In this paper, we propose a new experience-driven approach for effort and cost estimation in software development projects. A Delphi study is conducted that takes into account different perspectives in mobile app development. Recurring app features are identified and associated with effort estimates and their variations based on different roles, perspectives, and complexity levels. In order to utilize our findings, a prototypical tool is introduced that allows effort and cost estimation based on incomplete information at an early stage in a project.
