Algorithms for Automating Task Delegation in Project Management
Bogdan Andrei Pop, Florian Mircea Boian · Annals of Computer Science and Information Systems · 2014
Project management can be defined as a complex set of activities that are performed by project managers, individuals or larger entities, that requires proper application of skills, knowledge, tools and techniques in order to reach or exceed project requirements.Two of the most important skills or techniques that greatly influence the end result of a project are task delegation and resource allocation.Poor decisions while delegating tasks or planning resources' allocation can result in defective project results.Many project management applications and models aid project managers in proper task delegation and resource allocation.This paper presents models and task delegation algorithms that can automate task assignment, thus reducing manual delegation, reducing loss and improving projects' end results.
