Software Project Mangmement (Lecture 5)
This document covers key topics in software project management including scheduling, work breakdown structures (WBS), estimation, and network diagrams. It discusses estimating techniques like bottom-up and top-down, as well as analogy and expert judgment. Critical path method (CPM) and program evaluation review technique (PERT) network diagrams are explained for determining project schedules. The importance of realistic estimates to avoid project failure is emphasized. Brooks' law about the ineffectiveness of adding people to late projects is also referenced.
Metrics for Mofel-Based Systems Development
This presentation describes the value of metrics, key concepts for effective use of metrics, and provides some common metrics for project management, model-based design, and quality assurance. Created by Dr. Bruce Powel Douglass, Ph.D.
Software Project Scheduling Diagrams
The document discusses various project scheduling techniques including network diagrams, critical path method, critical chain method, Gantt charts, and PERT charts. It provides examples of how to create activity network diagrams using the activity-on-node and activity-on-arrow methods. The critical path method is described as identifying the longest path of dependent tasks in a project network diagram. However, issues with this method include assuming unlimited resources and misuse of float. The critical chain method is presented as modifying the critical path method to consider limited resource availability by using buffers instead of float.

DELPHI METHOD (COST ESTIMATION MODELT)
The Wideband Delphi Method is a consensus-based software estimation technique involving multiple steps: a kickoff meeting where stakeholders generate tasks and assumptions, individual preparation where estimators provide effort estimates, an estimation session where estimates are discussed and revised, and a final review. The process aims to develop accurate estimates by leveraging group judgment and addressing uncertainties through documented assumptions.
Software effort estimation
This document discusses various software project estimation methods, including bottom-up, top-down, parametric, and analogy-based estimation. It describes the COCOMO model for estimating software development effort and provides details on its constants, development effort multipliers, and the stages of analogy-based estimation. Function point models like Mark II and COSMIC are also summarized as methods of measuring software size.
Wideband Delphi Estimation
Wideband Delphi is a consensus-based estimation technique involving a team that creates task estimates through an iterative process. It begins with a kickoff meeting where the team generates tasks and assumptions. Members then independently estimate effort for each task. Next, an estimation session is held where the team revises estimates through discussion to reach consensus. Finally, the project manager assembles the results into a final task list and estimate report. The technique leverages group expertise and iteration to create accurate and agreed-upon estimates.
Basic Software Effort Estimation
Estimating involves forecasting the time and cost to complete project deliverables. There are two main types of estimates: bottom-up estimates require more effort but rely on those familiar with the work, while top-down estimates can be made by managers without direct experience. Software cost and effort estimation is not an exact science due to many variable factors. Key parameters that affect estimates include resources, time, human skills, and cost. Common software estimation techniques include top-down and bottom-up methods such as the three-point estimation technique.
Software Project Planning II
The document discusses software risk management and project scheduling. It defines risk as potential problems that could threaten a project's success but have not occurred yet. Risk management identifies, addresses, and eliminates these risks proactively. The document also discusses typical software risks, strategies to reduce risks, and tools for project scheduling like PERT charts, timeline charts, and Gantt charts. These tools help compartmentalize tasks, determine dependencies and allocate time to create a project schedule.
The art of project estimation
The document discusses various techniques for project estimation including three point estimation, Delphi method, planning poker, function point analysis, use case points, and PERT diagrams. It provides details on each technique including how they are conducted, their advantages and disadvantages, and when each is best applied. The key aspects that estimators need to consider for large scale projects are work partitioning challenges, increasing communication overhead with larger teams, and understanding how fast the project can realistically be completed based on its size.
Software project estimation
Estimation determines the resources needed to build a system and involves estimating the software size, effort, time, and cost. It is based on past data, documents, assumptions, and risks. The main steps are estimating the software size, effort, time, and cost. Software size can be estimated in lines of code or function points. Effort estimation calculates person-hours or months based on software size using formulas like COCOMO-II. Cost estimation considers additional factors like hardware, tools, personnel skills, and travel. Techniques for estimation include decomposition and empirical models like Putnam and COCOMO, which relate size to time and effort.

Work Study & Productivity
This document discusses work study techniques used to analyze human work and improve efficiency. It defines work study, method study, and work measurement. Method study examines work processes to develop more effective methods using a six-step approach. Work measurement techniques include time study, activity sampling, and predetermined time systems to establish standard times for tasks. The goals of work study are to optimize the use of resources, increase productivity, reduce costs, and improve working conditions and quality.
Work Study
Work study is a technique used to systematically analyze work processes to improve efficiency. It involves observing work, documenting the current process, analyzing it for improvements, developing a more efficient method, measuring the new method, and implementing it as the standard. The key founders who developed techniques in this area include Frederick Taylor with time motion studies, Frank and Lillian Gilbreth with motion studies, and Henry Gantt with task scheduling. Work study specialists must gain cooperation from supervisors and workers, and consider the human factors, to successfully conduct a study and implement new standards.
Motion And Time Study
Motion and Time Study are methods used to analyze work processes and determine standard times. Frank and Lillian Gilbreth pioneered Motion Study in the 1880s to analyze body motions. Frederick Taylor developed Time Study in the 1880s to measure task completion times. Modern tools like motion cameras, stopwatches, and software are used to study processes in manufacturing, offices, hospitals and more in order to identify inefficiencies and establish performance standards.
Motion Study
The document discusses principles and approaches for improving work efficiency through motion study and work design, including:
1. Four principles of motion economy to reduce unnecessary movement - reduce motions, perform simultaneously, shorten distances, make motions easier.
2. Ergonomic considerations for tool and workstation layout such as positioning parts and tools for sequential use, gravity feeding, and correct working heights.
3. Methods for analyzing and improving operations including eliminating unnecessary steps, simplifying processes, combining tasks, and rearranging sequences.
The Christmas Story
The passage describes the birth of Jesus Christ as foretold by prophets. An angel tells Mary she will conceive and give birth to Jesus, the Son of God. Mary visits her relative Elizabeth, who is also miraculously pregnant. Mary gives birth to Jesus in Bethlehem, where he is visited by shepherds and wise men. The passage establishes Jesus as the promised Messiah through fulfillment of prophecies.

Mom
The document is a poem about a mother's unconditional love and sacrifice for her child from birth through adulthood. It describes how the mother was always there to support and celebrate her child at each milestone, from standing up and taking first steps to starting school, getting sick, riding a bicycle, and becoming independent. It reminds the reader to show their love and spend time with their mother while they can, as the mother has given her all through the years and now in old age just desires a bit of her child's love and time in return.
Linearization
Linearization involves developing a linear approximation of a nonlinear system around an operating point. This allows tools from linear systems theory to be applied to analyze and design controllers for nonlinear systems. Specifically, Taylor's theorem is used to expand the nonlinear functions as a linear combination of deviations from the operating point. The resulting linearized model is only valid locally but provides an approximate way to analyze system behavior if well-controlled near the operating point. Examples show how to derive linearized models for common nonlinear systems like tanks and chemical reactors.
Kblmt B000 Intro Kaizen Based Lean Manufacturing
The document introduces Kaizen-based Lean Manufacturing (KBLM) as a way for businesses to increase speed, improve quality, and lower costs compared to traditional Material Requirements Planning (MRP) systems. It discusses eight basics of KBLM, including information integrity, motivational measurement, sequential production, point-of-use logistics, cycle time management, production linearity, resource planning, and customer connectivity. Case studies show companies achieving reductions in costs, inventory levels, and product build times by implementing KBLM.
How To Survive
The document provides seven rules for surviving in a new economy: 1) Accept ambiguity and uncertainty; 2) Hold yourself accountable for outcomes; 3) Become a quick change artist and adapt to changes; 4) Add value through your work; 5) Be a problem solver rather than pointing fingers; 6) Practice continuous improvement through lean processes; 7) Continue learning new skills. The introductory quote emphasizes embracing positive change and progress rather than resisting it or becoming part of negative forces that stand in the way.
Dad
A son or daughter's perspective of their father changes dramatically over time, from seeing their father as all-knowing when young, to viewing them as outdated and unreasonable during the teenage years, to later gaining appreciation for all the hardships and sacrifices their father endured to raise them as they become parents themselves.
Ancient Hieroglyphics
Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics originated as a sacred writing system used since around 3000 BC, combining alphabetic, logographic, and ideographic elements. It was used by priests, scribes, and educated citizens in different scripts until being replaced by Coptic in the 4th century AD. The Rosetta Stone, discovered in 1799, had the key to decrypting hieroglyphics by bearing a decree in three scripts: Greek, Demotic, and hieroglyphic. It was deciphered in 1822, unlocking understanding of ancient Egyptian writings.
DesignPeopleSystem
The document discusses various aspects of job design and work systems, including:
1. Job design involves specifying the content, tasks, responsibilities, and methods associated with a job.
2. Ergonomics and behavioral approaches aim to incorporate human factors and motivate workers through variety, autonomy, and feedback.
3. Traditional efficiency approaches focus on specialization and standardization of tasks from a productivity standpoint.
4. Effective job design balances both human and technical factors to optimize performance and satisfaction.
Organizational Behavior
Organizational behavior (OB) involves studying how individuals and groups function within organizations to accomplish work. Managers play an important role as they interact with others and direct activities to achieve organizational and personal goals. Manager's interpersonal skills are important because views of organizations are changing from seeing them as machines to seeing them as social systems where relationships among individuals are important. OB draws on various behavioral disciplines like psychology, sociology, and anthropology to study individual behavior, group behavior, organizational structure, and their impact on organizational effectiveness and efficiency.

- The role of work study in broader areas like systems analysis, business process reengineering, and human-computer interface design.
Time And Motion Study
Time and motion studies are methods used to determine the optimal time it takes to complete tasks. They were developed by Frederick Taylor and the Gilbreths to establish fair work standards and eliminate unnecessary motions. While originally used in manufacturing, today time and motion studies can be applied to performance evaluations, planning, problem solving, and cost analysis in various organizations. The objective is to study jobs and determine standard times through observation, task breakdown, and time recording. Allowance factors are added to standard times to account for contingencies. However, studies may not always accurately capture real work conditions due to observer or worker issues.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
