3. Determine the contribution of the identied UCG/RCG control data groups
to the overall function point count using the FFP rules.
In general, the FFP method uses a functional perspective. is perspective may
be biased by the counter’s experience with the application area. erefore, the fol-
lowing should not be treated as strict rules (this would require a formal speci-
cation), but to demonstrate a possible mapping of the Siemens AT requirement
specications to FFP concepts (see also Bootsma 1999).
