               Week 6 Discussion 1

“Measure and Control” Please respond to the following:

    • Measuring and controlling project deliverables is essential to validating work performed within a project. Evaluate how project status reports are useful for measuring and controlling resource efforts, project schedules, project costs, and project features of a software project deliverable.
    • Identify additional attributes of a software project that may be important to measure and control. Describe why they are important and how these attributes might be used to measure and control.RESPONSE:

      Week 6 Discussion 2

      “Software Defects” Please respond to the following:

    • Measuring and analyzing software defects is critical for software and system development. Describe the relationship between defect detection and rolling-wave adjustments. Determine the measures that may be performed to minimize the activities associated with rolling-wave planning.
    • Examine the factors that determine the availability of a system. Compare these factors and describe how they are interrelated. Suggest the tests that may be performed to determine these factors.RESPONSE:

      Week 7 Discussion 1

      “Earned Value” Please respond to the following:

    • Earned value reporting allows project managers to measure and track actual versus planned costs, schedule, and work. Present the factors, metrics, and formulas that may be used to determine earned value.
