The need for objectives data to asses, predict, improve software quality, and the development time and cost of it, is essential for success; showing the importance of software measurement. The value of the measurements is increased when it is realize based in models built in the early stages of the project because the results obtained allows to bring it under control in every moment and to correct in time possible deviations. The continued proliferation of metrics and the large volume of data being handled have shown that the classical techniques of data analysis are insufficient to achieve the objectives. Specifically the size measure methods have some limitations, because many of the results are not necessarily satisfactory and suitable for some types of software. Some of the most significant problems are related to the objectivity and reliability, the use of the adjustment factor, the precision and the measure in different development stages. This document gives an overview of software estimation process. Also shown some basics and it is located within the project management software. It divides the estimate in the prediction of the size, effort and time spent for the project. The emphasis in the models proposed by Barry Boehm and Watts Humphrey to estimate the duration of software projects trying to find common ground for a possible integration between them.
