The paper explores the role of artificial intelligence techniques in the development of an enhanced software project management tool, which takes account of the emerging requirement for support systems to address the increasing trend towards distributed multi-platform software development projects. In addressing these aims this research devised a novel architecture and framework for use as the ...

Software development is a knowledge-intensive work and the main attention is how to manage it. The systematic reviews of empirical studies presents, how knowledge management is used in software engineering and development work. This paper presents how knowledge is used in agile software development and how knowledge is transferred to agile software using agile manifesto. It then argues for the ...

The phenomenon of global software development has changed the traditional methods of software engineering. Along with several benefits, globalization brings lot of challenges for practitioners of global software development. Among all challenges, establishment of a configuration management system for distributed teams is one of the major technical challenges. Therefore, in this study, it has be...

By ‘believable software management’ we shall understand a “state of software development” (as an established practice) in which all developers, that is, programmers and managers at all levels, in their conscience, are confident that everybody is working according to state-of-the-art methods. In this Software Engineering Encyclopedia entry on ‘believable software management’ we shall therefore s...

Software project management is one of the critical activities in software development process. Many software development projects fail due to poor management of projects. The main aim of software project management team is to count what is countable, measure what is measurable and prepare measurable parameters for continuously monitor and manage a software development project. One of the very i...

Requirements Management is one of the challenging and key tasks in the development of software products in distributed software development environment. One of the key reasons found in our literature survey the failure of software projects due to poor project management and requirement management activity. This main aim of this paper 1. Formulate a framework for the successful and efficient req...

This paper presents a framework and a prototype for designing Integrated Construction Management ~ICM! software applications using reusable components. The framework supports the collaborative development of ICM software applications by a group of ICM application developers from a library of software components. The framework focuses on the use of an explicit software development process to cap...

This paper summarizes some discussions at Dagstuhl Seminar #12071 Software Clone Management Towards Industrial Application on alternatives envisioned for clone management within the software development process. Keywords-clone management; software development process;

It can be argued that the quality of software management has an effect on the degree of success or failure of a software development program. We have developed a metric for measuring the quality of software management along four dimensions: requirements management, estimation/planning management, people management, and risk management. The quality management metric (QMM) for a software developm...

Globally Dispersed Software Development (GDSD) takes place when two (or more) development teams are separated by a national boundary while collaborating on common projects. Today, such instances occur with greater frequency as software development globalizes within the MIS unit of the Multinational Enterprise and within the packaged software firm. Deriving from the fields of globalized R&D mana...
