3. INTRODUCTION
process of management for development of software product by
use of tools,knowledge and technique
Software management activities:
o Cost: important step- entire project depends on the cost factor.
o Quality:Quality management to maintain a great quality of
product by meeting the requirement specifications.
o Scheduling: Includes timing required
o Resource: Pooling up human resources and allocating them with
suitable job profile and managing
4. PROJECTMANAGEMENTPROCESS
Uses a systematic and disciplined approach to develop software
Phases of Project Management Process :
Phase i. Project planning:
o Project management begins with planning,which is single largest
responsibility of the project management.
o The major activities of project planning are:
Cost Estimation
Schedule and Milestone determination
Project-Staffing
Quality control plans
Controlling and Monitoring plans
5. PROJECTMANAGEMENTPROCESS
(CONTINUED)
Phase ii. Project Monitoring and control:
o Is longest in terms of duration, it compasses most of the
development process
o Includes all activities the project has to perform while
development is going on to ensure project objectives are made
and development proceeds according to the developed plan.
o Monitoring potential risks for the project, which might present the
project from meeting its objective
Phase iii. Project Termination Analysis:
o Is the last phase in project management process
o Is performed when the development process is over.
o Is important to know about future projects estimation and
predictability
6. SOFTWAREQUALITYMANAGEMENT
Divided into three parts-
i. Quality Assurance:
o Is process of monitoring and improving all activities associated with
software development..
ii. Quality Control:
o Means testing and measuring the quality of a product
iii. Quality Planning:
o Identify customer and target markets
o Discover hidden and unmet customer needs
“Product should meet its specification”
7. SOFTWARERISKMANAGEMENT
related to various future harms that could be possible on the
software due to some minor mistakes in software development
process
Risk: potential future harm that may arise due to some present
actions
Evaluates what could happen and looks for ways to minimize the
damage
Different risks:
Project risk Product risk Business risk
8. SOFTWAREMAINTENANCE
Totality of activities required to provide cost-effective support to a software system
Categories of Maintenance:
S.N. Types Details
1 Corrective Maintenance Reactive modification of a software product performed after delivery to correct discovered problems
2 Adaptive Maintenance Modification of a software product performed after delivery to keep a software product usable in a changing
environment
3 Perfective Maintenance Modification of a software product after delivery to improve performance
4 Preventive Maintenance Modification of a software product after delivery to detect and correct faults in the software product before they become
effective
9. CONCLUSION. . .
Software management- the final stage of SDLC for
giving a quality product and maintaining the product
to increase its lifespan
