Monitoring of Software Project Progress Base on Automata Theory
Funchun Liu, Gengbing Zhao · 2016
Since the monitoring of software project progress involves many uncertain factors, it is crucial to choose an effective modeling method to monitor the software project progress.In this paper, we propose a novel method to monitor the software project progress based on automata theory.The main contributions are threefold.First, an extended automaton, namely assigned finite automaton, is formalized to model the software project progress.Then, a new system structure for monitoring software project progress is presented based on the assigned finite automaton.Finally, an algorithm to realize the monitoring is developed.In addition, an example is provided, in which it is illustrated that the proposed method may effectively monitor the software project progress.
