1 What are the factors influencing project management? Explain the role of project manager.

Answer: Project management: Project Management is the process and activity of planning, organizing, motivating, and controlling resources, procedures and protocols to achieve specific goals in scientific or daily problems. A project is a temporary endeavor designed to produce a unique product, service or result with a defined beginning and end undertaken to meet unique goals and objectives, typically to bring about beneficial change or added value. The

2. What do you mean by software cost estimation process? Why software cost estimation is required?

Answer: Cost estimation can be defined as the approximate judgement of the costs for a project. Cost estimation will never be an exact science because there are too many variables involved in the calculation for a cost estimate, such as human, technical, environmental, and political. Futhermore, any process that involves a significant human factor can never be exact because humans are far too complex to be entirely predictable. Furthermore, software

3 Define risk assessment. Explain the elements of risk assessment and risk control.

Answer: Risk assessment: Risk assessment is the determination of quantitative or qualitative value of risk related to a concrete situation and a recognized threat (also called hazard). Quantitative risk assessment requires calculations of two components of risk (R): the magnitude of the potential loss (L), and the probability (p) that the loss will occur. Acceptable risk is a risk that is understood and tolerated usually because the cost or difficulty of implementing an effective countermeasure for the associated vulnerability exceeds the expectation of loss.

4 What is conflict management? How do we remove conflicts among team members?

Answer: Conflict management: Conflict management is the process of limiting the negative aspects of conflict while increasing the positive aspects of conflict. The aim of conflict management is to enhance learning and group outcomes, including effectiveness or performance in organizational setting (Ra him, 2002, p. 208). Properly managed conflict can improve group outcomes.

5 Describe briefly the activities of software reengineering. Draw the necessary diagram.

Answer: Activities of software reengineering: Reverse engineering is the process of discovering the technological principles of a human made device, object or system through analysis of its structure, function and operation. It often involves taking something (e.g., a mechanical device, electronic component, or software program) apart and analyzing its workings in detail to be used in maintenance, or to try to make a new device or program that does the same thing without using or simply duplicating (without understanding) any part of the original.

6 What do you mean by software testing? Why it is required?

Answer: Software testing: Software testing is an investigation conducted to provide stakeholders with information about the quality of the product or service under test. Software testing can also provide an objective, independent view of the software to allow the business to appreciate and understand the risks of software implementation. Test techniques include, but are not limited to, the process of executing a program or application with the intent of finding software bugs (errors or other defects).

It involves the execution of a software component or system to evaluate one or more properties of interest. In general, these properties indicate the extent to which the component or system under test:
