Bill Swallow:

Scoping is qualitative and estimation is
quantitative.

Tony Markos:

We must be talking about two different things.

Bill Swallow:

Scoping involves breaking down the "thing" into
"thing-ettes".

Tony Markos:

I say this is part of estimating - not scoping. The
requirements engineering community provides the only
formal system scoping technique that I know of. Try
researching "Context Diagram".
