answers | highly graded a+
Project Portfolio Management - CORRECT ANSWERS-a process of selecting,
prioritizing, and monitoring project results.
- determining of a project's contribution to an entire portfolio of a project reinforces the
need for a feasibility study
- an approval commitee must be selective about where to allocate resources as most
organizations have limited funds
-
What is PMP? - CORRECT ANSWERS-Project Management Professional available
through the Project Management Institute www.pmi.org
Project Methodology - CORRECT ANSWERS-is a formalized approach to implementing
the SDLC (basically a list of steps and deliverables)
Waterfall Development - CORRECT ANSWERS-phase to phase. The key deliverables
are usually voluminous and are presented to the approval commitee and project
sponsor for approval as the project moves from phase to phase.
** this one takes a really long time from beginning to end.
Parallel Development - CORRECT ANSWERS-the project is divided into a series of
subprojects that can be designed and implemented in parallel. Once all subprojects are
complete, there si a final intergration of the separate pieces.
**problem: is subprojects are to idependent there might be problems intergrating it all in
one at the end.
V Model - CORRECT ANSWERS-like the waterfall but this however, pays more
attention to testing.
** requires continuous testing
RAD - CORRECT ANSWERS-Rapid Application Development:
is a collection of methodologies that emerged in reponse to the weakness of waterfall
development
, Scope Creep - CORRECT ANSWERS-the most common reason for schedule and cost
of overruns occurs after the project is underway.
** The project manager shoul allow only absolutely necessary requirements to be added
after the project begins
Iterative Development - CORRECT ANSWERS-breaks the project down into a series of
versions that are developed sequentially.
System protoyping - CORRECT ANSWERS-Performs the analysis , design, and
implementation concurrently in order to quickly develop a simplified version of teh
proposed system and give it to the users for evaluation and feedback and then go back
and provide a second
** this is basically used to proof to the customer that the system is feasible
Throwaway Prototyping - CORRECT ANSWERS-design prototype is not entended to be
a working system.
Agile Development - CORRECT ANSWERS-is a group of programming-centric
methodologies that focus on streamlining the SDLC. Here face to face communication is
used.
- This was created in part because of the dissatisfaction with the sequential
mehtodologies
** There are several popular approches to this:
- Extremem prpogramming
- dynamic systems development method (DSDM)
- and SCRUM
Extreme Programming - CORRECT ANSWERS-small teams of programmers
communicate with programmers this methodlogy requires on-site user input which may
be difficult to obtain
What methodology is best to use when the user requirements are unclear? - CORRECT
ANSWERS-System and throwaway prototyping
What methodology is useful when reliability is very important? - CORRECT ANSWERS-
V- Model
What is a workplan? - CORRECT ANSWERS-Keeps track of tasks in the SDLC and the
amount of time it took
What is the PM's primary tool for managing the project? - CORRECT ANSWERS-The
project workplan: it is a table that lists all of the tasks in the work breakdown structure
(day, task ID, name, etc)
Reporting Structure - CORRECT ANSWERS-Project Manager
