CP7301 SOFTWARE PROCESS AND PROJECT MANAGEMENT SYLLABUS
 |
| CP7301 SPPM SYLLABUS |
- To understand overall SDLC and adopt suitable processes
- To elicite, analyze, prioritize, and manage both functional and quality requirements
- To estimate efforts required, plan, and track the plans
- To understand and apply configuration and quality management techniques
- To evaluate, manage, and design processes
(A mini-project can be chosen by the instructor and use it as a context for the tutorials)
UNIT I DEVELOPMENT LIFE CYCLE PROCESSES
Overview of software development life cycle – introduction to processes – Personal Software Process (PSP) – Team software process (TSP) – Unified processes – agile processes – choosing the right process Tutorial: Software development using PSP
UNIT II REQUIREMENTS MANAGEMENT
Functional requirements and quality attributes – elicitation techniques – Quality Attribute Workshops (QAW) – analysis, prioritization, and trade-off – Architecture Centric Development Method (ACDM) – requirements documentation and specification – change management – traceability of requirements Tutorial: Conduct QAW, elicit, analyze, prioritize, and document requirements using ACDM
UNIT III ESTIMATION, PLANNING, AND TRACKING
Identifying and prioritizing risks – risk mitigation plans – estimation techniques – use case points – function points – COCOMO II – top-down estimation – bottom-up estimation – work breakdown structure – macro and micro plans – planning poker – wideband delphi – documenting the plan – tracking the plan – earned value method (EVM) Tutorial: Estimation, planning, and tracking exercises
UNIT IV CONFIGURATION AND QUALITY MANAGEMENT
identifying artifacts to be configured – naming conventions and version control – configuration control – quality assurance techniques – peer reviews – Fegan inspection – unit, integration, system, and acceptance testing – test data and test cases – bug tracking – causal analysis Tutorial: version control exercises, development of test cases, causal analysis of defects
UNIT V SOFTWARE PROCESS DEFINITION AND MANAGEMENT
Process elements – process architecture – relationship between elements – process modeling – process definition techniques – ETVX (entry-task-validation-exit) – process baselining – process assessment and improvement – CMMI – Six Sigma Tutorial: process measurement exercises, process definition using ETVX
