Lixin Zhou · 2008
The allocation of human resource is one of the most essential aspects in a project management. A situation with employees working on tasks that they are not well-suited for can lead to a significant loss of time and resources in addition to a sub-par product or service. The simple difference between a good and bad task assignment for employees can easily result in major differences in a company's bottom line. In this paper, we present a project human resource allocation method based on software architecture and social network in a project organization. An algorithm for matching employees and tasks is put forward which are based on task attributes, software architecture, employee skills and employee preference and social network relations. As a result, we have created a new human resource allocation method in a project management.
