The Timeboxing Process Model for Iterative Software Development
The Timeboxing Process Model for Iterative Software Development Pankaj Jalote Department of Computer Science and Engineering Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur – 208016; India Aveejeet Palit, Priya Kurien Infosys Technologies Limited Electronics City Bangalore – 561 229; India Contact: [email protected] ABSTRACT In today’s business where speed is of essence, an iterative development approach that allows the functionality to be delivered in parts has become a necessity and an effective way to manage risks. In an iterative process, the development of a software system is done in increments, each increment forming of an iteration and resulting in a working system. A common iterative approach is to decide what should be developed in an iteration and then plan the iteration accordingly. A somewhat different iterative is approach is to time box different iterations. In this approach, the length of an iteration is fixed and what should be developed in an iteration is adjusted to fit the time box. Generally, the time boxed iterations are executed in sequence, with some overlap where feasible. In this paper we propose the timeboxing process model that takes the concept of time boxed iterations further by adding pipelining concepts to it for permitting overlapped execution of different iterations. In the timeboxing process model, each time boxed iteration is divided into equal length stages, each stage having a defined function and resulting in a clear work product that is handed over to the next stage. With this division into stages, pipelining concepts are employed to have multiple time boxes executing concurrently, leading to a reduction in the delivery time for product releases. -
Hoplite Final Project Report
Hoplite Final Project Report Lizzy Hamaoka, Reese Pearsall, Kyle Webster Spring Semester 2020 1 Introduction We propose creating an automated reporting system that will generate re- ports based on pass or fail tests. Reports will be generated based upon the defined criteria of the Security Technical Implementation Guides (STIGs) that will serve as a guideline for compliance. The system will generate reports for Hoplite's customers' security systems for third party auditors, the managers of Hoplite's customers, as well as Hoplite Industries. The format of the report will be split into sections that include: the STIG id and respective severity level followed by the control, description, criteria of the specified STIG, and lastly the output. Hoplite's primary requirements for this project are that the system is de- ployable on Windows and Linux systems with a focus on Linux, customers can adjust the scripts for local customization, and that the product can be run ef- ficiently to allow being scalable to large systems. The software requirements involve utilizing python scripts, bash scripts, SQL databases, and other third party software that utilizes approved licenses. There is a large market for the application being built outside of the Department of Defense and the product will potentially be shipped within the next 12 months. 1 Elizabeth Hamaoka 503.267.5664 | [email protected] EDUCATION Bachelor of Science in Computer Science (Interdisciplinary Option) (GPA: 3.71) Minor in Computer Engineering Montana State University | Bozeman, MT -

Unit 5 – Project Planning
Unit 5 – Project Planning UNIT OVERVIEW Description of the Unit In this unit, you will explore the necessity of proper project planning and how ‘front end’ planning can ensure project success. You will look at several scenarios that put a structure around project scope, deliverables, scheduling, staffing, resources, and risks to help anchor the planning process. Unit Objectives At the conclusion of this unit, you will be able to: • Understand the necessity of a project plan • Assess resource and budgeting issues • Analyze project risks • Effectively determine project scope • Identify project deliverables Unit Topics • Project schedules based on work breakdown structures • Project resources and schedules based on staff availability • Project budgets • Managing project risks • Triple constraint to achieve project goals Activities and Exercises • Group Exercise 5A: Project Management Scenarios • Group Exercise 5B: Review Project Plans for Unit 3 Scenarios Approximate Time for Unit 1 hour 45 minutes Managing Technology Projects and Technology Resources Participant Guide 5 - 1 Institute for Court Management Unit 5 – Project Planning Managing Technology Projects and Technology Resources Participant Guide 5 - 2 Institute for Court Management Unit 5 – Project Planning ___________________________________ ___________________________________ ___________________________________ ___________________________________ UNIT 5 ___________________________________ Project Planning ___________________________________ ___________________________________ ©2010 -

Many-Objective Software Remodularization Using NSGA-III

ACM Transactions on Software KALYANMOY DEB, Michigan State University Engineering and Methodology (TOSEM) 24, no. 3 (2015): 1-45. ALI OUNI, University of Michigan, Dearborn Abstract. Software systems nowadays are complex and difficult to maintain due to continuous changes and bad design choices. To handle the complexity of systems, software products are, in general, decomposed in terms of packages/modules containing classes that are dependent. However, it is challenging to automatically remodularize systems to improve their maintainability. The majority of existing remodularization work mainly satisfy one objective which is improving the structure of packages by optimizing coupling and cohesion. In addition, most of existing studies are limited to only few operation types such as move class and split packages. Many other objectives, such as the design semantics, reducing the number of changes and maximizing the consistency with development change history, are important to improve the quality of the software by remodularizing it. In this paper, we propose a novel many-objective search-based approach using NSGA-III. The process aims at finding the optimal remodularization solutions that improve the structure of packages, minimize the number of changes, preserve semantics coherence, and re-use the history of changes. -
