Project Management

Project management includes planning, monitoring and control of people, process, tasks
and events that occur during the project development process. It is a very necessary activity for the
computer based projects. Project management process includes all those activities that run during
the whole duration of the project. The scope of the project management differs with the person
doing it. A software engineer manages his day to day activities, planning and monitoring of its
technical tasks. A project manager plans, monitors and controls the work of a team of software
engineer. Senior manager controls the interface between the business and the software
professionals. Building software being a complex task makes project management very important
part of software building process.

The management spectrum involves the focus on 4 P’s.

1.) People:-
It is base framework, defining the people management, recruitment, selection, and training

2.) Product :-
Defining the objectives and scope

3.) Process:-
Defining the framework for activities

4.) Project:-
Management of project is the only defined way to manage the complexity of the project.

2.1 Software Process Model:-

To solve actual problems in a project, a software engineer or a team of engineers must incorporate
a strategy that encompasses the process, methods and tools that are focused on the software
quality. This strategy is called as a process model or a software engineering paradigm.

10

In this project we have used incremental model.

Incremental model: - In this model all the basic requirements of the clients are being
studied and first increment is delivered (also called as core product) and many supplementary
features remain undelivered. Then a plan is developed for the next increment while the first
increment is under review or evaluation by the user. Then the plan addresses the modification of
the core product focusing on other requirements of the user. This process is repeated until all the
requirements are not fulfilled. This can also be considered in a way that customer has provided all
his requirements and we divide it into phases. In this no integration is required as the new
increment is overwritten on the existing one.

2.2 Team Structure:-

The team structure is DEMOCRATIC DECENTRALISED (DD). The team comprises of single
members:--

 ABHIJEET SINGH KALSI

Decentralized teams generate better solutions and have greater probability of success when
working on different problems. DD team structure is best applies to programs with low modularity.

Based on the difficulty of the problem to be solved relatively low modularity of the project and
high volume of the communication required a democratic decentralized team structure is proposed.
This software engineering team has no permanent leader. Rather, “task coordinators are
appointed for short duration and then replaced by others who may coordinate different tasks.”
Problem solving is a group activity. Communication among team members is horizontal.
Decentralized team generates more and better solutions than individuals. Therefore such teams
have a greater probability of success when working on difficult problems.

2.3) PROJECT PLAN
Software planning involves estimating how much time, effort, money, and resources will be
required to build a specific software system. After the project scope is determined and the problem
is decomposed into smaller problems, software managers use historical project data (as well as
personal experience and intuition) to determine estimates for each. The final estimates are
typically adjusted by taking project complexity and risk into account. The resulting work product is
called a project management plan.

11

Panning includes:-

1. Risk Planning.
2. Project Scheduling.

2.3.1 Risk Planning:-
Risk is an event that delays or destroys the project thus affecting the cost. Planning and
management of risks are intended to help a software team to understand and manage the
uncertainty during the development process. Thus plans are made not only to understand the risk
uncertainty but also to minimize the impact when things go wrong.

The steps involved in risk management are:

 Risk identification
 Analyzing risk and assessing the damage that it will do
 Ranking the risk according to probability of occurrence and impact
 Developing a plan to manage the risks with high probability and high impact

The work product of Risk is management is called as Risk Mitigation, Monitoring and
Management Plan (RMMM).

Risk Strategies:-

 Reactive strategies – very common, also known as fire fighting, project team sets resources
aside to deal with problems and does nothing until a risk becomes a problem.

 Proactive strategies - risk management begins long before technical work starts, risks are
identified and prioritized by importance, then team builds a plan to avoid risks if they can or
minimize them if the risks turn into problems.

2.3.2 Project Scheduling:-
 Activity that distributes estimated efforts across the planned project duration by allocating
the effort to specific software engineering tasks.
 Network of software engineering tasks that will enable the job to get accomplished on time.
 Done to avoid lateness in project.

Requirement Analysis
This is also known as feasibility study. In this phase, the development team visits the
customer and studies their system. They investigate the need for possible software automation in
the given system. By the end of the feasibility study, the team furnishes a document that holds the
different specific recommendations of what all is to be done for the system. It also includes the
personnel assignments, costs, project schedule, and target dates. The requirements gathering
process is intensified and focused specially on software. To understand the nature of the
program(s) to be built, the system engineer ("analyst") must understand the information domain for
the software, as well as required function, behavior, performance and interfacing. The essential
purpose of this phase is to find the need and to define the problem that needs to be solved.
Broadly, what all has to be done in the whole project has been documented on the basis of
detailed study made in this phase.

The work product developed by the analysts at the end of analysis phase is Software
Requirement Specification Document (SRS). This document is comprised of:-process
specifications, data object specification, control specification. And the system is being designed
keeping in mind all the information gathered in this document.

_____________________________________________________________

3.1) DATA DICTIONARY
It is a basic building block. It is an organized listing of data objects/entities (with their
attributes/fields) that are relevant to the system, with precise clear definitions.

Entities and their attributes in the project:-

3.2) ENTITY RELATIONSHIP DIAGRAM
An Entity Relation Diagram (E.R.D) is a graphical tool used to describe and analyze the
movement of data through the system-manual or automated-including the Entities, the relations
between different entities and the attributes of different relations or attributes are the central tool
and the basis from which other components can be developed. While drawing the ERDs, the
approach as given by Yourdon has been followed. The Symbols used in the E.R.D are.

3.3) DATA FLOW DIAGRAM

It is a pictorial representation of Business processes (functions/services/activities), along
with the data flow.

 Software process:-Guides how the software is being built.

 Business process:-Specific to organization, e.g.:- In this project; issuing ticket, canceling
ticket.

In this focus is on what data flows and not how the data flows. When all the analysis is
being made then we develop a diagram to depict the analysis, and following symbols are being
used:-

Design is a meaningful engineering representation of something that has to be built. It can
de traced according to a customer’s requirements and at the same time assessed for quality
against a set of pre-defined criteria for a “good” design. In the software contexts, design focuses
four major areas of concern:

1. Data

2. Architecture

3. Interfaces

4. Components

TRANSLATION OF ANALYSIS MODEL INTO SOFTWARE DESIGN:-

 Data design - created by transforming the analysis information model (data dictionary and
ERD) into data structures required to implement the software

 Architectural design - defines the relationships among the major structural elements of the
software, it is derived from the system specification, the analysis model, and the subsystem
interactions defined in the analysis model (DFD).

 Interface design - describes how the software elements communicate with each other, with
other systems, and with human users; the data flow and control flow diagrams provide much
the necessary information.

 Component-level design - created by transforming the structural elements defined by the
software architecture into procedural descriptions of software components using information
obtained from the PSPEC, CSPEC, and STD.

4.1) DATABASE DESIGN:-

In this we analyze the work product of requirement analysis, and from that we use data
dictionary to design the database. Entities are represented in a tabular form containing the list of
their attributes. These are in specific the files that are being referred at the time of data flow.

Entities (Files) that are being used in the system:-

1) Aurkut_user
2) Cust_professional
3) Cust_social
4) Cust_friends
5) Cust_scrapbook
6) Cust_photos
