Implementing a distributed software project management tool
Software Development has become a necessity in our life where it can be found anywhere. As complexity increases, so does the risk of failure. It is estimated that 68% of all the projects fail, due to unrealistic terms, incompetent members, incorrect specifications, and poor management amongst other …

An Empirical investigation of software project schedule behavior.
… to investigate the actual behaviour of the two projects in depth; second, to develop conceptual structures relating the lower-level processes of each project to the higher-level processes; third, to relate the lower-level and higher-level processes to project duration; fourth, to test a …

Reducing system software project risk through choice of project architecture
The choice of project architecture - the structure of and interrelationships between product, processes, and organization - alters the project's risk profile. While most analyses take project scope as an input, I propose the examination of multiple project decompositions take place as part of …

A Model of Multicultural Software Project Team Management applied in Requirements Engineering
In today's world of global software teams, managing members from multiple countries and cultures adds to an already complex mix of software productivity issues. While software team compositions have been researched based on tasks, personality, and role descriptions, few models exist to help …

Analogy-based software project effort estimation. Contributions to projects similarity measurement, attribute selection and attribute weighting algorithms for analogy-based effort estimation.
Software effort estimation by analogy is a viable alternative method to other estimation techniques, and in many cases, researchers found it outperformed other estimation methods in terms of accuracy and practitioners¿ acceptance. However, the overall performance of analogy based estimation depends …
