In a case study, the Use Case Point (UCP) method was applied to 15 commercial software development projects. The estimated efforts were compared with the incurred project efforts. We measured a standard deviation of 42 %. This is not acceptable for industrial usage. Therefore, we propose appropriate improvements of the Use Case Point method leading to significantly higher estimation accuracy with only 20 % standard deviation. The contribution of this paper is a detailed description of the improved Use Case Point method.","lang":"eng"}],"author":[{"first_name":"Stephan","full_name":"Frohnhoff, Stephan","last_name":"Frohnhoff"},{"full_name":"Engels, Gregor","id":"107","last_name":"Engels","first_name":"Gregor"}],"title":"Revised Use Case Point Method - Effort Estimation in Development Projects for Business Applications","_id":"8000","department":[{"_id":"66"}],"user_id":"52534","citation":{"apa":"Frohnhoff, S., &#38; Engels, G.
