Software Engineering

Explanation / Answer

(1)

A. All managers are more or less involved in all phases of POMA

Thus the correct option is (A)

(2)

Define the 3P’s in the form of management spectrum is People, Project, Process.

Thus the correct option is (C)

(3)

Thus the correct option is (A) Recruiting the people to be responsible for different roles.

4. Which one of the following issues is not usually dealt with during monitoring phase of POMA?

In the case of POMA faces some issues like

Thus the correct option is (B) who pays for the monitoring?

(5)

Software project contains the some principles like

Thus the correct option is (D) All of the above

(6)

Data gathering and monitoring process done by the

Thus the correct option is (D) Both B and C.

(7)

Formula for the Earned Value is in the form of

EV = (Actual cost) % (complete * BAC)

Thus the correct option is (D) None of the above

(8)

CPI = EV/AC

When CPI > 1 that means EV < AC

CPI > 1 then project is comes under budget

CPI < 1 then project is over budget.

Thus the correct option is (B) If CPI < 1 then cost over-run.

(9)

Almost all software projects have some experience about the changes in the project and also happen most frequent changes in their project. In few cases software management team have chance to decide the plans of execution project in the case of requirement analysis, designing.

Thus the correct option is (D) Unplanned adjustments usually come in response to unanticipated requests or incidents.

(10)

Perform the operations with attribute based it will give the information about project attributes.

Thus the correct option is (A) Attribute Based: Collecting information on one or more attributes related to a specific project attribute of interest.
