> This is the COMETS (Cost Model for European Trust Services) page.  COMETS is essentially an EXCEL spread sheet based model that was developed in 1998.  I'm pulling down the file and will check it out.  Also, I have requested a copy of the ECAF Model to see if it has any actual costs in it.  More later

COMETS

Four comets in an unlikely constellation

The COMETS project set out to create a generic cost model for Trusted Third Parties. After eight months' work in the course of 1998, the output includes a Microsoft Excel workbook, which automatically produces a business plan for five different logical components of a Public Key Infrastructure, combined into a user-selectable set of business units. The business plan takes the form of worksheets in the Excel environment, with data based on the research carried out by the project. However, the worksheets can be modified by the user to fit existing data, either using the custom COMETS menu, or by directly manipulating the worksheets. In this way, the workbook application provides a flexible tool for users to create their own business plans.

In this project, we worked with our partners Cryptomathic A/S, Logica plc and the University of Leuven. You can find further information about the ETS programme on the European Commission's website.

Download the application
