Risk management that is one of the knowledge areas of software project management process, has a direct impact on the success of the Project. the success of the project can be estimated in the project first phase by creating a predictive risk model with the risks and results in similar projects. For this purpose, the studies on risk estimation and risk evaluation have started to show increase i...

A dynamic software risk assessment model is presented. Analogies between dynamic financial analysis and software risk assessment models are established and based on these analogies it suggested that dynamic risk model for software projects is the way to move forward for the risk assessment of software project. It is shown how software risk assessment change during different phases of a software...

abstract project management in construction industry, in many cases, is imperfect with respect to the integration of occupational health and safety (ohs) risks. this imperfection exhibits itself as complications affecting the riskiness of industrial procedures and is illustrated usually by poor awareness of ohs within project teams. difficulties on ohs regularly came about in the construction i...

this paper aims at providing a new model based on data envelopment analysis (dea) to prioritize project risks. it is clear that the large amounts of involved capitals, the long term of infrastructure projects’ implementation, and the project management problems in on-time completion of projects indicate the necessity of paying particular attention to this issue and conducting applied research i...

An equitable risk allocation between contracting parties plays a vital role in enhancing the performance of the project. This research presents a new quantitative risk allocation approach by integrating fuzzy logic and bargaining game theory. Owing to the imprecise and uncertain nature of players’ payoffs at different risk allocation strategies, fuzzy logic is implemented to determine the value...

Allocation of construction risks between clients and their contractors has a significant impact on the total construction costs. This paper presents a system dynamics (SD)-based approach for quantitative risk allocation. Using the proposed SD based approach, all the factors affecting the risk allocation process are modeled. The contractor’s defensive strategies against the one-sided risk alloca...

The goal of this paper is to show how the concept of fuzzy logic can be used to establish a degree to which an investment project belongs to a class of risk. Also, the probability of the fuzzy event is presented and is ap-plied to calculate the probability of the fuzzy event “the project X is a good investment”. This process has to enable the decision maker to compare several alternative invest...

The most important aim of every project is on time completion, budget consideration and reaching the highest possible quality, based on contract. This paper suggests a methodology for risk management in engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) projects. Risk management enables project teams to perform with minimum deviation from predetermined goals. The proposed methodology identifies a...
