摘要:The purpose of this research is to gain Effort Rate (ER) on the Use Case Point method (UCP) for estimating effort of the website development. The Effort estimation is an activity that is carried out to predict how amount of effort required to complete a software development project. Effort estimation is very important be know before the project is executed to determine how resources should be spent to complete the project. In this context, resources include the work hours and expenses. Commonly UCP was one of method used to estimate software development effort. The studies that have been conducted by several researchers carried out to estimate the regular software development. Until now, it is not found research using UCP to estimate effort for the website development project. The UCP that is used to estimate the effort of website development projects requires different ER from the ER for regular software project. Effort is obtained by multiplying the value of UCP and ER. The ER value proposed by some researchers varies between 18 to 36 staff-hours per UCP, while ER proposed by Karner was 20 staff-hours per UCP. The final results of this study obtain ER value of 4.41. This value is smaller than the value proposed earlier researchers. Decline of the ER values can decrease value of effort estimation, furthermore decline of value effort estimation will decrease resources that it will be required for software development. This may be due to the website development project which can use Content Management System (CMS) as component or framework that facilitate the development of a website project easier.
