Founded in 1946, the IEEE Computer Society is a professional organization for computing professionals. Based in Washington, DC, it's the largest of IEEE’s 38 societies organized under the IEEE Technical Activities Board. The IEEE Computer Society is dedicated to advancing the theory, practice, and ...
An independent examination of a work product or set of work products to assess compliance with specifications, standards, contractual agreements, or other criteria. It differs from a review in that it is more narrowly focused than a review and has a short-term goal identifying problems or resolving issues.
Industry:Computer; Software
In project management, a network graph using nodes with interconnecting edges to represent tasks and their planned sequence of completion, interdependence, and interrelationships that must be accomplished to reach the project goals. Examples of an activity network are critical path method (CPM) and PERT chart.
Industry:Computer; Software
An approach to managing a system/software project to hold the project to a predetermined cost. Actual and projected costs are closely tracked, and actions such as deleting or postponing lower-priority requirements are taken if costs threaten to exceed targets. Also called cost as an independent variable (CAIV).
Industry:Computer; Software
(1) In a hierarchical structure, the next lower level that is associated with a given element. The lower element is said to be derived from the higher element. (2) In system engineering, the changing or translation of a requirement through analysis into a form that is suitable for low-level analysis or design.
Industry:Computer; Software
The software development lifecycle phase during which the detailed design process takes place, using the software system design and software architecture from the previous phase (architectural design) to produce the detailed logic for each unit such that it is ready for coding. Also called detailed design stage.
Industry:Computer; Software
A potential problem that would be detrimental to a planned activity, project, or program, characterized by the probability of problem occurrence (0 _ p _ 1) and a potential loss (of life, money, property, reputation, and so on) should the problem occur. Both probability and potential loss might change over time.
Industry:Computer; Software
A form of decision analysis that balances competing components to achieve the best performance. Software’s classic space-time trade-off is an example of optimization; an algorithm that runs faster will typically use more memory. Optimization balances the faster runtime’s value against the additional memory’s cost.
Industry:Computer; Software
Any one of several quantitative methods of estimating the expected cost (and some times schedule) of a software project. Quantitative techniques are generally based on empirically derived cost estimating relationships. Generally, the major independent parameter (input) is lines of source code and/or type of project.
Industry:Computer; Software
A document that describes the exact detailed configuration of a computer program. It identifies the input, output, control logic, algorithms, and data structure of each individual low-level component of the software product and is the primary product of the detailed design phase. Also called detailed design specification.
Industry:Computer; Software
In system engineering, a system milestone review that ascertains the adequacy of the system developer's efforts in defining system requirements. It will be conducted when a significant portion of the system functional and performance requirements has been established, normally in the definition phase (or equivalent effort).
