Abstract
This paper introduces the practical guidelines for function point analysis in the Republic of Korea. Korean government recommends that Function Point Analysis should be adopted as a standard method for measuring the functional size of software. Function Point was proposed by an international organization. We will present the procedure of counting Function Point with adjustment factors. The functional size and development cost of software can be estimated from the number of Function Point.
