Documentation Standard: The project documentation will follow the IEEE standards

Coding Standard:The project follows the ASP.NET standards for web part development and custom code deployment.  Commenting Standard: Each block of statements will be well commented. Comments are used in the project to give a brief description of the code, mainly intended to describe the functionality and purpose of commented areas.

Metrics: COCOMO model is used to estimate the cost of the project in terms of effort and time.
