Each software project requires a specialized management to handle software development activities throughout the project life cycle successfully and efficiently. Software governance structures provide easy and efficient ways to handle software development activities. Software configuration management is an important software development activity, and while selecting the right strategy in configuration management, its conformity to the software governance should be considered as well. Software configuration management patterns are aligned with the software governance structures to increase the success in development and management of the projects. Companies running large and inter-dependent projects, should adapt their governance structures to the changing characteristics and dependencies of projects. In this thesis, we propose a method to dynamically manage software configuration management, as a result of the changing specifications in the software governance representation.

A Software benchmarking methodology for effort estimation
Nabi, Mina; Demirörs, Onur; Department of Information Systems (2012)
Software project managers usually use benchmarking repositories to estimate effort, cost, and duration of the software development which will be used to appropriately plan, monitor and control the project activities. In addition, precision of benchmarking repositories is a critical factor in software effort estimation process which plays subsequently a critical role in the success of the software development project. In order to construct such a precise benchmarking data repository, it is important to have ...
An Automated defect detection approach for cosmic functional size measurement
Yılmaz, Gökçen; Demirörs, Onur; Department of Information Systems (2012)
Software size measurement provides a basis for software project management and plays an important role for its activities such as project management estimations, process benchmarking, and quality control. As size can be measured with functional size measurement (FSM) methods in the early phases of the software projects, functionality is one of the most frequently used metric. On the other hand, FSMs are being criticized by being subjective. The main aim of this thesis is increasing the accuracy of the measu...
Software project scheduling, software project performance measurement and control
Kanık, Yusuf; Koçyiğit, Altan; Department of Information Systems (2005)
This thesis is about software project scheduling and use of earned value method on software projects. As a result of the study, a solution for software project scheduling problems is proposed. A mathematical formulation, developed using integer programming method, is at the heart of the solution. Objective of the formulation is to minimize the development costs consisting of direct labor cost, indirect costs and probable penalty costs. The formulation takes the capability and compatibility variances among r...
A gis domain framework utilizing jar libraries as components
Ödoğru, Ebru; Doğru, Ali Hikmet; Department of Computer Engineering (2005)
A Component Oriented Software Engineering (COSE) modeling environment is enhanced with the capability to import executable components and deliver applications through their composition. For this purpose, an interface layer that utilizes JAR libraries as components has been developed. Also, Domain Engineering process has been applied to Geographical Information Systems (GIS) domain and utilized towards converting the environment to a development framework. The interface layer imports JAR libraries into the C...
Use of project similarity for software development time estimation
Taştekin, Semra Yilmaz; Bilgen, Semih; Erten, Murat; Department of Information Systems (2013)
Accurate development time estimation is crucial for project management in general, and critical for software intensive systems projects, in particular. Before beginning the project, little information is available for development details. Therefore, development time may not be estimated correctly. If data on previous projects in the same domain is available, this can be used for development time estimations. At the beginning of the project, requirements are defined and requirements specification document is...
