Critical Success Factors (CSFs) are used to support and evaluate the success of a strategic and tactical approach in project implementation in order to increase the probability of success. This system is used by executors in project delivery to achieve improved performance capabilities with limited resources. The present paper aims to identify the impact of CSFs amongst the main elements involv...

there are some barriers for rangers to take part in range plan projects andevaluation. their participation is very useful for range managers to plan and provide solutionsfor solving problems. this study aims at comparing barriers of participating from rangers andexperts point of view in lar moor rangelands, tehran, iran. in this research, data werecollected based on documentation-library and fi...

it is commonly recognized that knowledge is the only source of core competence of environmental projects in the knowledge based companies, but the productivity rate of knowledge workers is always low. based on knowledge workers’ characteristics, in this paper, we seek to identify knowledge workers factors influencing on the environmental projects risk management success (eprm), then knowledge s...

NASA Langley Research Center (LaRC) developed the Langley Standard Real-Time Simulation in C++ (LaSRS++) to consolidate all software development for its simulation facilities under one common framework. A common framework promised a decrease in the total development effort for a new simulation by encouraging software reuse. To judge the success of LaSRS++ in this regard, reuse metrics were extr...

Project management has been successfully applied in wide range of industries where planning and control are predictable and enforceable, such as construction and military systems. These are environments where the solution and activities are known or can be accurately described. Knowledge Economy projects are characterised by activities that are knowledge intensive or novel, by highly unique or ...

The last few years have seen a rapid increase in the number of Free/Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) projects. Some of these projects, such as Linux and the Apache web server, have become phenomenally successful. However, for every successful FLOSS project there are dozens of FLOSS projects which never succeed. These projects fail to attract developers and/or consumers and, as a result, never...

Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) is an emerging field of systems engineering for which the System Modeling Language (SysML) is a key enabler for descriptive, prescriptive and predictive models. This paper surveys some of the capabilities, expectations and peculiarities of tools-assisted MBSE experienced in real-life astronomical projects. The examples range in depth and scope across a wid...
