But before going further, let's establish the definitions we need to understand and apply Root Cause Analysis needed to discover the corrective and preventive actions to increase the probability of project success - especially Software Project Success. What factors lead to software project failure?” All for the want of a nail.

Let's start with a clear and concise description of the problem of successfully managing projects in the presence of uncertainty: Accurate software cost and schedule estimations are essential for non-trivial software projects. As a software project progresses, more information about the project is known. The COCOMO 2.0

In 2012, I wrote a blog post entitled “Delivering provably-correct code.” ” In it, I suggested several approaches developers could use to gain high confidence that their code would be suitable for release. They didn’t rely on a study to teach them how to build software. Is a WSDL a formal specification?

Research shows that for projects, especially software projects Aleatory uncertainty is the predominant source of risk. So here are some books, handbooks, and guides that sit on my shelf that are used pretty much all the time on the Software Intensive System of Systems we work on. Software Risk Management , Barry W.

Yes, this is the basis of any closed loop control system from keeping the room temperature at a specific setting, to the speed control on your car, to managing software development projects in the presence of uncertainty. Let me point out an obvious problem - software projects go over budget and are late.

Defensive programming consists of learning and using guidelines for software design and coding that tend to minimize the frequency and severity of problems in production. The day came when the software community more-or-less forgot about defensive programming. I guess that worked out okay for a generation of developers.

The primary purpose of software estimation is not to predict a project’s outcome; it is to determine whether a project’s targets are realistic enough to allow the project to be controlled to meet them ‒ Steve McConnell.
