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)

Because the author’s experience and knowledge of GAS is primarily limited to ACL‚ that is the software used to demonstrate the value of implementing GAS in this article. For more software products‚ see the exhibit in the Bagranoff and Henry article‚ cited in footnote 3‚ and the list of GAS in the Sayana article‚ cited in footnote 1. Experts say that generalized audit software (GAS) is the most common computer-assisted audit tool (CAAT) used in recent years. There are many reasons today for IT auditors

1 INTRODUCTION 1 Goals The tutorial is intended to provide information on agents and agent technology to educate more of the software development and CHI community on the impact and nature of current Agent technology. By providing a reasonable backdrop for agents‚ this tutorial hopes to allow the student to pursue additional reading material with a more objective eye for that which is real and that which is hyperbole (hysteria?). 2 Objectives The tutorial student should leave with

Systems engineering is a discipline concerned with the integration of multiple interrelated systems. Any significant project is composed of many different parts which must be completed separately‚ but all of which must work in harmony in the final design. It is the job of a systems engineer to balance and define the requirements of each subsystem to achieve the best possible final design. The engineers within each subsystem are tasked with optimizing their piece of the project under the given constraints
