Software project management audits
Journal of Systems and Software, 1981This paper shows how project audits can be used to uncover project strengths and weaknesses. Three audits are described and findings of the audit teams are summarized. Audits helped identify organizational problems, lacking management discipline, and software testing approaches useful to other projects.

Practicum in software project management
The 6th Joint Meeting on European software engineering conference and the ACM SIGSOFT symposium on the foundations of software engineering: companion papers, 2007One of the key factors influencing project success or failure is project management. Unfortunately, effective management of software projects is not in practice; what is actually being practiced varies significantly from what is advised in the available literature.

Software Project Management Net: a new methodology on software management
Proceedings. The Twenty-Second Annual International Computer Software and Applications Conference (Compsac '98) (Cat. No.98CB 36241), 2002Managing the development of large-scale software systems is a challenge to all software project managers due to the ever-increasing complexity inherent in the software development life-cycle. In this paper, a formalism intended to capture the concurrent and iterative nature of software development, called Software Project Management Net (SPMNet), is ...

The problems of managing software projects
Software Engineering Journal, 1986Experience suggests that projects involving a significant software content run a considerable risk of being completed late and over budget, while the resulting software does not always meet the original design specifications. This is in spite of the fact that the general principles of project management are well understood.

Improving software project management
Journal of Systems and Software, 1990Abstract While the complexity of software-based products has increased enormously over the past decade, the increased cost of software development goes far beyond that which can be explained by this increased complexity. The single most glaring cause of this cost increase is the lack of effective leadership within software development projects.

Risk management for software projects
IEEE Software, 1994There is little to instruct software project managers on how to handle risk in a way that ensures the success of contingency planning and avoids crisis. This seven-step procedure describes how to identify risk factors, calculate their probability and effect on a project, and plan for and conduct risk management. >

Software for concise and informative project management
Journal of Information Technology, 1991Managing a project is an involved and many faceted job requiring a combination of management, organization and technical skills. Current methods tend to be based on lifecycle principles and so are project management tools. Additionally, project management is learnt by a process of ‘coming up through the ranks’.

Software Project Managers’ Risk Preferences
Journal of Information Technology, 1996A questionnaire was administered to 68 software project managers (SPMs). Questions were designed to test whether SPMs’ risky judgments were more consistent with Expected Utility Theory or Prospect Theory. Although the results were more consistent with Prospect Theory, they differed in important ways showing SPMs’ judgments to be less homogeneous than ...
