54 results about "Work breakdown structure" patented technology

A work-breakdown structure (WBS) in project management and systems engineering, is a deliverable-oriented breakdown of a project into smaller components. A work breakdown structure is a key project deliverable that organizes the team's work into manageable sections. The Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK 5) defines the work-breakdown structure "A hierarchical decomposition of the total scope of work to be carried out by the project team to accomplish the project objectives and create the required deliverables."

Data integration between project systems

A project systems integrator integrates a financial planning system and an operational planning system for a project. The integrator loads a work breakdown structure (“WBS”) from the financial planning system and another WBS from the operational planning system. The integrator then records links between corresponding nodes of the financial WBS and operational WBS. When data is entered, updated, or otherwise changed, the data is propagated between the nodes in accordance with the links.

Model inventory manager

A method and apparatus for managing a building model inventory, including a database structured for storing element specification and instance data from both a previous version and a latter revision of building information modeling datasets, respectively. In addition to the building information modeling element data, the database associates completed assembly pass, unit cost, work breakdown structure, and other inventory management data with the element type definitions and element instance data. Application software compares the first and second inventory revisions to identify all changes, additions and / or deletions of building elements between the previous version and the latter revision of the building information modeling datasets. By tracking the elements that change, the changes that affect the construction schedule and quantity, configuration and specification of materials are identified. An engineering cost analysis based on the changed data provides a rapid understanding of the implications of any design change.

Action-based in-process software defect prediction software defect prediction techniques based on software development activities

An action-based in-process software defect prediction (ABDP) applies classifying records of a performed action to predict whether subsequent actions cause defects in a project. A performed action is previously defined herein as an operation performed based on tasks in Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) of the project. Rather than focusing on the reported defects, ABDP discovers the patterns of the performed action that may cause defects composing a historic data set, and uses analytical results to predict whether the subsequent actions are likely to generate defects composing another historic data set. Once actions with high probability of causing the defects are identified, stakeholders review these actions carefully and take appropriate corrective actions to create a fresh performed action. The fresh performed action is continually appended to the historic data sets of amending the defects to construct a new prediction model for further subsequent actions.

Project Portfolio Management System Creating Virtual Relationships

A project portfolio management system creating virtual interrelationships between projects. Aspects of the system include creating virtual relationships at the Work Breakdown Structure (“WBS”) level with appropriate offsets using interpretations of logic relationships in detailed project schedules using various calculation approaches. The system models the linkages between detailed project schedules in a virtual relationship usable in alternate scenario planning analysis at a summary or working level. The virtual relationships are accurate enough for high level planning by users (e.g., program managers and analysts) with limited familiarity of project details (e.g., which non-workdays are in which project calendars) and reduce the computation times when altering a project planning scenario. Using the virtual relationships allows scenarios to be quickly evaluated to gauge the effects of changing constraints before committing to recalculating the detailed schedules of a project.
