Quality Based Software Project Staffing and Scheduling with Budget and Deadline
نویسندگان
چکیده
Software project planning is becoming more complicated and important as the size of software project grows. Many approaches have been proposed to help project managers by providing optimal staffing and scheduling in terms of minimizing the salary cost or duration. Unfortunately, the software quality, another critical factor in software project planning, is largely overlooked in previous work. In this paper, we propose the quality based software project staffing and scheduling approach. We provide better software project plans considering quality with either cost bound (Budget) or duration bound (Deadline) for software project managers.

An Investigation of Optimal Project Scheduling and Team Staffing in Software Development using Particle Swarm Optimization
Software development organizations often struggle to deliver projects on time, within budget and with the required quality. One possible cause of this problem is poor software project management and, in particular, inadequate project scheduling and ineffective team staffing. This paper investigates the application of a particle swarm optimization algorithm to help software project managers perf...

متن کاملDeveloping Robust Project Scheduling Methods for Uncertain Parameters
A common problem arising in project management is the fact that the baseline schedule is often disrupted during the project execution because of uncertain parameters. As a result, project managers are often unable to meet the deadline time of the milestones. Robust project scheduling is an effective approach in case of uncertainty. Upon adopting this approach, schedules are protected against po...

Critical Path Method (CPM) is one of the most popular techniques used by construction practitioners for construction project scheduling since the 1950s. Despite its popularity, CPM has a major shortcoming, as it is schedule based on two impractical acceptance that the project deadline is not bounded and that resources are unlimited. The analytical competency and computing capability of CPM thus...
