Software engineering as a scientific and engineering discipline

A new interpretation of software engineering from scientific, engineering, and practical standpoints is proposed. Software engineering is defined as a successor of programming and computer science, namely, its management theory. Features and attributes of software engineering as an original discipline are founded. The structure, content, and concepts of this discipline and its basic elements are presented. __________ Translated from Kibernetika i Sistemnyi Analiz, No. 3, pp. 19–28, May–June 2008.     

PMBOK、ICB与《建设工程项目管理规范》之比较

本文就国际上两大项目管理知识体系:美国的PMBOK、欧洲的ICB与我国建设部发布的国家标准<建设工程项目管理规范>(GB/T 50326-2001)在其目的、内容和侧重方向上进行详细的比较的同时,阐述了<建设工程项目管理规范>的局限性,以利于人们对项目管理的全面了解和我国项目管理的理论体系的更好的发展.     

Uncovering temporal underpinnings of project management standards

The modern experience of time is one of increasing time pressure, acceleration and scarcity. Project management goes hand in hand with those phenomena, as time management and deadlines are put at the forefront of this discipline. The importance of time in project management invites inquiries into how it is defined. This article proposes to uncover the way time is conceived in two project management bodies of knowledge. Based on content analysis, this research shows that both standards draw on a quantitative and objective conception of time and evoke acceleration and time scarcity. This article reveals that project management standards reflect and at the same time contribute to those temporal phenomena of acceleration and time scarcity. As such, by identifying how time is commonly conceived in important sources of knowledge on project management, this study enriches our understanding of the current temporal experience marked by time pressure.     

PLM Software Selection Model for Project Management Using Hierarchical Decision Modeling With Criteria From PMBOK® Knowledge Areas

Abstract:

This article presents a methodology for product lifecycle management (PLM) software selection utilizing the nine knowledge areas of the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK®) (A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide, 2008). The methodology utilizes a five-process gate approach where the PLM offerings are researched, sorted, paired down, evaluated, and implemented. The primary decision model utilizes hierarchical decision modeling (HDM). Prioritizations are assigned to the PMBOK® knowledge areas utilizing a pair-wise comparison survey and then assessed across the different PLM system offerings. The proposed decision methodology is meant to serve only as a guide to assist with selection of PLM software from a project management perspective. To validate the model, several applications are presented that apply the selection methodology to different industries: semiconductor, information technology (IT), and automotive supply.
