Project Management 2

Which of the following is a key principle of conventional software engineering?

• Embracing change at every development stage

• • Following a linear and sequential process

• • Focusing on customer collaboration over contracts

• Continuous integration and deployment

In the context of modern software management, which principle is emphasized most?

• • Waterfall model adherence

• Prioritizing exhaustive documentation

• Emphasizing iterative and incremental development

• Isolating the development team from stakeholders

The phase in which the project vision and business case are developed is known as the:

• • Construction phase

• • Transition phase

• • Inception phase

• • Elaboration phase

Which of the following best describes the elaboration phase in software development?

• Developing a stable version of the software for deployment

• Establishing the project's requirements and baseline architecture

• Building the initial project prototypes

• • Performing detailed system tests and bug fixes

What is the primary objective of the construction phase in the software development life cycle?

• To explore different architectural options

• • To conduct user training and final deployment

• To build the system according to the architecture and requirements

• To manage change requests and provide maintenance

Management artifacts in software engineering refer to:

• Documents related to code implementation and testing

• Outputs used to monitor project progress and plans

• Models and diagrams for system architecture

• Feedback gathered from end users

Engineering artifacts are primarily focused on:

• • User manuals and training documentation

• • Project planning and budget control

• Technical design, code, and system testing elements

• Marketing strategies for product launch

The transition phase in a software project lifecycle mainly involves:

• • Identifying and managing project risks

• • Ensuring that the system is stable for user deployment and support

• Building and integrating core system components

• • Developing proof-of-concept models

Model-based software architecture from a technical perspective focuses on:

• • Planning and budget allocation

• High-level organizational goals

• • The use of formal models to define the system's structure and behavior

• Team performance metrics

From a management perspective, why is model-based software architecture important?

• • It facilitates micromanagement of development teams.

• • It reduces the need for skilled developers.

• • It helps in visualizing project progress and making informed decisions.

• It solely focuses on detailed coding practices.
