Chapter 4 - Software Process and Project Metrics Overview • Software process and project metrics are quantitative measures that enable software engineers to gain insight into the efficiency of the software process and the projects conducted using the process framework. In software project management‚ we are primarily concerned with productivity and quality metrics. The four reasons for measuring software processes‚ products‚ and resources (to characterize‚ to evaluate‚ to predict‚ and to improve)

Case Study #1 – Software Engineering Elizabeth M. Crispino 01 December 2010 Explain why programs which are developed using Evolutionary Development are likely difficult to maintain. Evolutionary development is an iterative and incremental approach to software development. Instead of creating a comprehensive artifact‚ such as a requirements specification‚ that you review and accept before creating a comprehensive design model (and so on) you instead evolve the critical development artifacts

SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT Introduction Lehman’s Law of Software Evolution predicts that change in software is inevitable and it is not a consequence of bad programming. There are also limit to what can be achieved by a software evolution team in safely implementing changes and new functionality. Software evolution reacts to the need of changes on the software system for various reason including bug fixes‚ declining performance‚ increasing complexity and adapting to new platform. Software

Describe each law in your own words. Illustrate with a practical example ? Glass’ law “Requirement deficiencies are the prime source of project failures Coming to my explanation Glass law states that if the basic requirements of the projects is not constructed properly that may leads failure of the project. To achieve goals in the project it plays an vital role and any drawbacks may leads project unsuccessful. Around 20% of all IT project failures were caused by incomplete or badly managed

This report is about software engineering project failures. In this report‚ I will first examine the importance of a good software engineering manager to a project. Then‚ I will identify major reasons for software engineering project fails within the software industry. At last‚ some suggestion about reducing project failure rates according to the knowledge and best practices will be provided. Manager is essential to software engineering project There are nine project management knowledge areas:

Why Software Should Be Free by Richard Stallman (Version of April 24‚ 1992) Introduction The existence of software inevitably raises the question of how decisions about its use should be made. For example‚ suppose one individual who has a copy of a program meets another who would like a copy. It is possible for them to copy the program; who should decide whether this is done? The individuals involved? Or another party‚ called the ``owner’’? Software developers typically consider these questions

Effect of Cultural Differences on Software Development A culture could be defined as the predominating attitudes and behaviour that characterizes the functioning of a group or organization. Through this paper we would like to address the effect of culture in the field of software development and one of the most commonly used model for development of a software Rapid Action Development (RAD). No matter what culture you are a part of; to develop software‚ a development model has to be followed.
