Using Table 6-6 in The New Software Engineering text as a guide, develop a CPM for the design phase of ABC's project. While you do the diagram, reason through the dependencies. Assuming Sam and Mary do the project alone, how should the work be allocated among them to (a) allow Mary to do project management tasks, and (b) leverage the work they did during analysis?
Papers will be graded on the following:
The student mentioned all the dependencies?
Is the work allocated carefully by allowing Mary to do the Project management tasks?
Is an appropriate activity sequence established for the CPM developed?
Has the student drawn a network diagram based on the activity sequence?
Is the 3 point estimation method or CoCoMo based estimation methods for tasks estimation used for creating the CPM?
Is the final diagram able to show the project progresses clearly?
