Performance Measurement Baseline. This creates a point of comparison of all the other baselines to evaluate project performance. It refers to all the change-related process that need to be performed during project execution. Optimistic Duration. It includes the coordination, management, and evaluation of project changes.

Landmark’s measure of success over these three years had much more to do with customer satisfaction and market share than with meeting knowingly aggressive targets. It's suggested from observations, the Cone of Uncertainty (CoU) is not a valid model of how uncertainty behaves in software development projects.

In software development, those managing the project have some understanding the market forces (from their marketing departments), the technology (from their engineering department), and how to manage in the presence of Aleatory and Epistemic risk (the managers running a successful firm). Software development is a non-ergodic process.

Although I understand measuring productivity could work well for repeatable activities, it's hard to believe it works well for abstract and, ultimately, non-repeatable tasks like software development. Thus, the common approach to "measure productivity" is to compare the estimates against what, in fact, happened.

AHP was developed in the 1970s by Dr. Thomas Saaty. In our agile software development world, AHP is rarely found. Using this method, the performance, cost, time, and risks of alternatives can be articulated as ratios that can then be compared with one another. The Core Issue with Ordinal Measures . References .

Here's a simple definition of the Cone of Uncertainty: . The Measure that is modeled in the Cone the variable is the Quantitative basis of a control process that establishes the goal for the performance measure. This is a closed loop control system for managing the program with a T echnical Performance Measure (TPM).

In the project domain, an estimate is a calculated approximation of some desired measurement. This is usually a cost, a completion date, a performance measure used in a closed loop control system to keep the project GREEN while delivering the needed Capabilities to produce the Value for the customer at the needed time for the needed cost.

Yeah, I’ve been in environments where I said we wanted to have a team and, you know, over the years we have outsourced all of development. So you definitely can have that right. And, you know, ultimately the thing that slows software development down is fear of change. Also, review performance measures.

For approaches that have been implemented on existing systems, obtaining such understanding may require measurement and analysis. For scenarios where the project under consideration does not yet exist, performance prediction using analytical modeling or simulation is necessary. Let's start with a definition.
