Software product release planning through optimization and what-if analysis
We present a mathematical formalization of release planning with a corresponding optimization tool that supports product and project managers during release planning. The tool is based on integer linear programming and assumes that an optimal set of requirements is the set with maximal projected revenue against available resources. The input for the optimization is twofold. The first type of in...
متن کاملWhat-If Analysis Through Simulation-Optimization Hybrids
This paper proposes to improve traditional what-if analysis for policy making by a novel integration of different components. When a simulator is available, a human expert, e.g., a policy maker, might understand the impact of her choices by running a simulator on a set of scenarios of interest. In many cases, when the number of scenarios is exponential in the number of choices, identifying the ...
متن کاملSoftware Next Release Planning Approach through Exact Optimization
The Software Requirements phase has notable importance, since it is responsible for the definition of the system itself. Several customers indicate which functionalities they want to be present in the software. However, constraints, such as budget, make it impossible to implement all desired requirements at once. One activity in this context is the release planning. The selection of which requi...
متن کاملAnalytical Product Release Planning
As part of any incremental and iterative development, release planning is the process of assigning features to upcoming releases (or iterations) such that the overall product evolution is optimized. Analytical product release planning refers to the application of analytical methods in this process, thereby utilizing the diversity of data available from internal and external sources of informati...
متن کاملWhat-If Analysis
In order to be able to evaluate beforehand the impact of a strategic or tactical move so as to plan optimal strategies to reach their goals, decision makers need reliable predictive systems. What-if analysis is a data-intensive simulation whose goal is to inspect the behavior of a complex system, such as the corporate business or a part of it, under some given hypotheses called scenarios. In pa...
