Engineering cannot wait until all phenomena are explained. Engineers may work
effectively, often for centuries, with heuristics. This paper provides over thirty heuristics that
have been inspired by the development and application of a systems engineering cost
estimation model. The objective of this paper is to present such heuristics in a simple manner
so that they can benefit those that develop, calibrate, and use cost models.
