Temporal Model for Productivity Inference in Iterative and Incremental Development Projects
Abou Bakar Nauman, William Marsh · ASME Press eBooks · 2011
Management in Iterative and Incremental Development projects supports the adaptive planning and adaptive development processes. The process of planning the remaining project in light of latest project data is termed as adaptive planning. In IID it has been encouraged to adopt adaptive planning as contrary to predictive planning. In IID projects, the output of project assessment of one of the iteration is used for input of the planning of next iterations. This paper proposes a probabilistic mathematical model for estimation of productivity of next iterations based on prior data of earlier iterations. The model is based on temporal modeling which can be further implemented in dynamic Bayesian networks, using Bayesian Networks development tools.
