  2. Bailey–Borwein–Plouffe formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bailey–Borwein–Plouffe...

    This does not compute the nth decimal digit of π (i.e., in base 10). [3] But another formula discovered by Plouffe in 2022 allows extracting the nth digit of π in decimal. [4] BBP and BBP-inspired algorithms have been used in projects such as PiHex [5] for calculating many digits of π using distributed computing. The existence of this ...

  3. Cost estimation in software engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost_estimation_in...

    Cost estimation in software engineering is typically concerned with the financial spend on the effort to develop and test the software, this can also include requirements review, maintenance, training, managing and buying extra equipment, servers and software. Many methods have been developed for estimating software costs for a given project.

  4. Software project management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_project_management

    Software project management is the process of planning and leading software projects. [1] It is a sub-discipline of project management in which software projects are planned, implemented, monitored and controlled.

  5. PiHex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PiHex

    PiHex was a distributed computing project organized by Colin Percival to calculate specific bits of π. [1] 1,246 contributors [2] used idle time slices on almost two thousand computers [citation needed] to make its calculations. The software used for the project made use of Bellard's formula, a faster version of the BBP formula. [3]

  6. Machin-like formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machin-like_formula

    In the special case where the numerator =, there are exactly four solutions having only two terms. [ 7 ] [ 8 ] All four were found by John Machin in 1705–1706, but only one of them became widely known when it was published in William Jones 's book Synopsis Palmariorum Matheseos , so the other three are often attributed to other mathematicians.

  7. Chronology of computation of π - Wikipedia

    Finds a formula that allows the nth hexadecimal digit of pi to be calculated without calculating the preceding digits. 28 August 1995 Yasumasa Kanada and Daisuke Takahashi: HITAC S-3800/480 (dual CPU) [36] [37] 56.74 hours? 4,294,960,000: 11 October 1995 Yasumasa Kanada and Daisuke Takahashi: HITAC S-3800/480 (dual CPU) [38] [37] 116.63 hours ...

  8. Project management software - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_management_software

    Project management software are computer programs that help plan, organize, and manage resources.. Depending on the sophistication of the software, it can manage estimation and planning, scheduling, cost control, budget management, resource allocation, collaboration software, communication, decision-making, quality management, time management and documentation or administration systems.

  9. Software development effort estimation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_development...

    In software development, effort estimation is the process of predicting the most realistic amount of effort (expressed in terms of person-hours or money) required to develop or maintain software based on incomplete, uncertain and noisy input.
