Thamer Al-Rousan, Shahida Sulaiman, Rosalina Abdul Salam · 2009

Many failures associated with software development in particular Web-based applications are due to poor awareness of risks involved and the weak management of these risks. Hence, effective risk management has become the essential factor in ensuring the success of the Web project management. We propose RIAP (Risk Identification Architecture Pattern) model to manage risks in Web projects. It has been implemented in a tool called WPRiMA (Web Project Risk Management Assessment). A case study illustrates the practical application of WPRiMA tool in a real web-based application project. The findings reflect that RIAP model can support software architects to estimate and mitigate risks before the design stage using WPRiMA.
