Simple Average Complex: Unadjusted Use Case Weight Total (UUCW)

This document outlines the use case point method for estimating software project effort. It includes tables for unadjusted actor and use case weighting, technical complexity factors, environmental factors, and calculations for unadjusted use case points, technical complexity factor, environmental factor, adjusted use case points, and estimated effort in person hours. Factors are assigned values from 0 to 5 and weighted based on their identified level of influence. The results are used to calculate estimates for effort required.
