Agents assisted software project management
Arun Sethuraman, Krishna Kumar Yalla, Ankur Sarin, Ravi Prakash Gorthi · 2008
The market opportunities for the field of software engineering have been on the rise for the last three decades. This field of engineering is relatively new and the management of projects in this field, though experiencing greater degrees of assistance from tools, still requires improvements. We present here details of our experiments on how the multi-agent technology can be used to improve the productivity and quality of software project management (SPM) process. We have picked up the quality review management sub-process of SPM and described its modeling using GAIA and its implementation using the JADE framework. We also present a case study and the productivity and quality improvements observed.
