The possible variability of project delay is useful information to understand and mitigate the project delay risk. However, it is not sufficiently considered in the literature concerning effort estimation and simulation in software product line development. In this paper, we propose a project delay simulation model by introducing a random variable to represent the variability of adaptive rework...

In the given paper I present the information regarding quality metrics. Different quality factors can be imposing with relation to cost, schedule and rework. It’s very important to make quality assurance plans. For that you have to cover many milestones which can be represented in time sheets. The main characteristics of the quality models have covered in this paper.

Rework that occurs late in the product life cycle is dramatically more expensive than design work performed early in the cycle. However, shifting traditional design work earlier in the design process so as to avoid rework later is difficult. A number of product development practices that have been characterized as a shift from developing a single-point design to developing a set of possible des...

While there has been much research on the study of global virtual teams and global software teams, there has been practically no research on the nuances of time separation. We present three converging perspectives on this topic: (a) a view from practices and tactics of global teams; (b) a theoretical view from coordination theories; and (c) a view from our prior research in which we modeled coo...

Understanding rework, the causes of rework, and the relationship between issues, decisions and the associated actions, is crucial in minimizing the fundamental industrial problems in system engineering projects. The aim of our research is to apply text mining techniques to track elements of decision making and extract semantic associations between decisions, actions and rework. Text mining is s...

A real economic growth only comes from increasing quality and quantity of the factors of production. Most production systems produce items which are of imperfect quality. In a production/inventory situation items which are received or produced are not of perfect quality. Thus the presence of defects which is inevitable in a produced/ordered lot is sorted out by the process of screening. Handlin...

This experience report illustrates the implementation of metrics about rework in Systems Engineering at Thales Airborne Systems. It explains how models and quantification of rework contribute to reduce waste in development processes. This paper is based upon our real experiences. Therefore, it could be considered as an industrial contribution to share this concept in Systems / Products Developm...
