Project planning is essential for software projects. It involves estimating the work, resources, and time required. Key planning activities include defining problems and requirements, developing solution strategies, and planning development processes. Requirements planning is especially important - it helps eliminate defects by gaining user involvement, understanding critical needs, and considering non-functional requirements. Empirical studies show most firms plan feasibility and costs, though risk management practices vary. Thorough early planning is needed to estimate schedules, efforts, people and resources needed for a project's success.

Software Project Management | An Overview of the Software Project ManagementAhsan Rahim
Management is the process of getting things done through others, it is the process of coordinating people & other resources to achieve the goals of the organization. A project is a set of related tasks that are coordinated to achieve a specific objective in a given time limit. A project is well-defined task, which is a collection of several operations done in order to achieve a goal. Software is the program & all associated documentation & configuration data which is needed to make these programs operate correctly.
A Software Project is the complete procedure of software development from requirement gathering to testing & maintenance, carried out according to the execution methodologies, in a specified period of time to achieve intended software product.

FISHBONE ANALYSIS ON WASTES IN SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT USING THE LEAN I.T. PRINC...ecij
The transformative global economy posed challenges to businesses in service management. In this computing age, the perceptual and operational edge of a certain business or organization manifested on the kind of technology it offers in the Service Management. Organizations have long recognized the
importance of managing key resources such as people and information. Information has now moved to its rightful place as a key resource in the organization and therefore management of the same can be instituted by employing methodology. To keep their brand promise, technology has been used;The number of new entrants to every sectors of economy has grown significantly in recent years, and each firm strives to make their daily operation efficient in which demand for business software or application software getting higher and businesses or organizations opted to build or buy this software. Because of
new entrants, it had offered opportunity to software developers to translate business processes into systems. This study investigates waste in the software development by application of Lean principles. Like any conventional projects, software becomes buggy and oftentimes it fails. Software failure is always attributed to the software engineering, not the incompetence of project managers, inadequacy of the
people on the project, or lack of clear goal. The researchers’ contentions are there wastes in the software development and serve as mechanism and evidence to why software fails. Software failure is not attributed to the software itself, it includes however the acceptance of the clients and end-users. Descriptive secondary data analysis, participant observation and Fishbone Analysis were the methodology used in the study. Wastes include unfinished or partially done work, extra features,
relearning, handoffs, delays, task switching, and defects.
Today as we see, software has become an inseparable part of human life. Almost everything we can look around is managed, controlled by software.
The goal of software project management is to understand, plan, measure, and control the project such that it is delivered on time and on budget. This involves gathering requirements, managing risk, monitoring and controlling progress, and following a software development process.

Quality software project management
i need deep explanation for this figure
Solution
Answer :-
Software Project Management :
A project is well-defined task, which is a collection of several operations done in order to
achieve a goal (for example, software development and delivery). A Project can be characterized
as:
1) Every project may has a unique and distinct goal.
2) Project is not routine activity or day-to-day operations.
3) Project comes with a start time and end time.
4) Project ends when its goal is achieved hence it is a temporary phase in the lifetime of an
organization.
5) Project needs adequate resources in terms of time, manpower, finance, material and
knowledge-bank.
Software Project :
A Software Project is the complete procedure of software development from requirement
gathering to testing and maintenance, carried out according to the execution methodologies, in a
specified period of time to achieve intended software product.
Need of software project management :
Software is said to be an intangible product. Software development is a kind of all new stream in
world business and there’s very little experience in building software products.
Software Project Manager :
A software project manager is a person who undertakes the responsibility of executing the
software project. Software project manager is thoroughly aware of all the phases of SDLC that
the software would go through. Project manager may never directly involve in producing the end
product but he controls and manages the activities involved in production.
Managing People :
1) Act as project leader
2) Liaison with stakeholders
3) Managing human resources
4) Setting up reporting hierarchy etc.
Managing Project :
1) Defining and setting up project scope .
2) Managing project management activities .
3)Monitoring progress and performance
4) Risk analysis at every phase .
5) Take necessary step to avoid or come out of problems .
6) Act as project spokesperson .
Software Management Activities :
Software project management comprises of a number of activities, which contains planning of
project, deciding scope of software product, estimation of cost in various terms, scheduling of
tasks and events, and resource management. Project management activities may include:
1) Project Planning
2) Scope Management
3) Project Estimation
Project Planning :
Software project planning is task, which is performed before the production of software actually
starts. It is there for the software production but involves no concrete activity that has any
direction connection with software production; rather it is a set of multiple processes, which
facilitates software production.
Scope Management :
It defines the scope of project; this includes all the activities, process need to be done in order to
make a deliverable software product. Scope management is essential because it creates
boundaries of the project by clearly defining what would be done in the project and what would
not be done. This makes.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

3. What is Project Management ?
Project management is the discipline of planning,
organizing, securing, managing, leading, and controlling
resources to achieve specific goals. A project is a
temporary endeavor with a defined beginning and end
,undertaken to meet unique goals and objectives. It is a
systematic approach to planning and guiding project
processes from start to finish
Five Stages: Initiation, Planning, Executing,
Controlling, and Closing.
4. Planning in Project
Management
Project planning is a discipline for stating how to
complete a project within a certain timeframe, usually
with defined stages, and with designated resources. One
view of project planning divides the activity into:
Setting objectives (these should be measurable)
Identifying deliverables
Planning the schedule
Making supporting plans
Supporting plans may include those related to human
5. Planning in Software
Projects
Software project management begins with a set of
activities that are collectively called project planning. Before
the project can begin, the Project Manager and the
software team must estimate and look into.
The work to be done
The resources that will be required
And the time that will elapse from start to finish.
The future and accept some degree of uncertainty as
matter of course.
6. Lack of Planning leads to …
It is often said that early planning is impossible
because precise information concerning the project goals,
customer needs and system constraints is not available at
the beginning of a software project. But a major purpose of
the planning phase is to clarify goals and needs required
to plan a software project. Lack of good planning leads to
Schedule slippage
Cost overruns
Poor quality
High maintenance cost.
7. Software Project PlanningActivities
1.Define the Problem,
2.Develop Solution Strategy,
3.Planning the Development Process.
I. Define the Problem Involves :-
Understanding the problem
Justifying the need of a Software
Identifying the functions of a major subsystem
Identify the goals and requirements
Establishing high- level acceptance criteria for the
system.
8. II. Developing Solution Strategy involves:-
Outlining several solution strategies
Conducting feasibility study for each strategy
Recommending a solution strategy, indicating why
other strategies were rejected.
Developing a list of priorities for product
characteristics.
9. III. Planning the Development Process involves:-
Defining a life Cycle model and an organizational
structure of the project.
Planning the configuration management, quality
assurance and validation activities.
Determining phase development tools, techniques
and notation to be used.
10. III. Estimation in Planning Phase include:-
Preliminary cost estimation for system development
•Expert judgment
•Work breakdown structure
•Algorithmic cost model.
Preliminary staffing estimates
Computing resources required to operate and maintain the
system.
Identifying the sources of information and refer to them throughout
the project plan.
Software measures for quality and product
•Metrics used – Size oriented and function oriented

11. Journal 1 ( IEEE) - Successful software projects need
requirements planning
by Annie I Anton, Professor, College of Eng.
North Carolina State University
This paper mainly focus on importance of
understanding the requirements.
According to this author top three project challenged
factors are:
1. Lack of user involvement
2.Incomplete requirement and specification
3.Changing requirements and specifications
Standish Group surveyed that bad requirement
causes 40 – 60% software failures
Key Principles can help eliminate defects during requirement planning.
1.Understanding the problem before expressing the requirement.
2. Involve the stake holders early on and sustain their involvement to validate
requirements. We must give customers repeated opportunities to validate
requirement.
Prototypes – give users a tangible product – it helps to interact
12. Journal I ( IEEE) - Successful software projects need
requirements planning
by Annie I Anton, Professor, College of Eng.
North Carolina State UniversityKey Principles can help eliminate defects during requirement planning.
3. Ensure that Critical Requirements are considered.
Scenario Analysis – Obstacle analysis – What if questions
4.Give non-functional and quality requirements as much attention as functional
requirements.-users emphasis on functional requirements.
Non functional requirements express a software system’s properties,
including security, reliability, portability, and robustness.
Good requirement planning mean software can be cheaper to produce,
easier to build and less prone to unexpected failures.
13. Journal 2( IEEE) - Software project initiation and
planning - an empirical study
by D.Greer-UK & R.Conradi- NorwayThis paper describes the study on 14 established Norwegian software
companies - How they initiate and pre-plan software development projects.
The aim was to obtain an indication of the range of planning activities
carried out be these 14 software firm.
The Instrument of study was structured interviews. (Questions are left completely
open ended )- Sampling convenience sampling of 31 companies.
CMM level integration (Capability Maturity Model ) approach emphasis the role of
through planning in the software projects for improving the predictability and to ensure
the process improvement.
Question included from the topics :
Software process Choice
Feasibility Study
Early Planning Documents
Release Planning
Risk Management
14. Journal 2( IEEE) - Software project initiation and
planning - an empirical study
by D.Greer-UK & R.Conradi- NorwayFindings of the Study
1. Most of the firms using Agile method (IID), few of them using Water fall model
2.Study confirms the perceived importance of Feasibility Study , but firms mainly
focus on Economical feasibility ,although several did mention on technical
feasibility.
3.Most companies produce at least a partial requirements documents. Early cost,
schedule and budgets are often documented, but other data on decision taken are
not documented.
4.Waterfall process associated with a single release do often include provision for
future releases. For agile scrum projects , the number of releases planned is
always two or more.
5.Risk Identification and Risk Monitoring are common activities but other risk
management were not explicitly performed in most of the companies.
15. Conclusion …..
The early planning of software project is very vital
and the software project planner must estimate three
things before a project begins:
How long it will take
How much effort will be required
How many people will be involved
In addition , the project planner must predict the
resources ( Hardware and Software ) that will be
required and the risk associated with this project.
The Success of software project relay on
user involvement and their participation
