Abstract

This chapter proposes the application of periodic wave concepts in management of software Parallel processing projects or processes. This chapter lays special emphasis on Runaway project, which create a lot of problems in Project Management for the stakeholders. This chapter proposes a new and dynamic way to control the software project estimation activity of Runaway project/processes, thereby reducing their future occurrences. This chapter also explains how the equations of unidirectional periodic Waves can be applied in software Parallel processing to measure quality and project execution in a dynamic way at any point in time. The concepts proposed here are dynamic unlike PERT/CPM and other metrics, which fail in worst-case scenarios. The Propagation Speed ‘C’ at any point in time of a stage or part of a software system executing in Parallel can be given by: C = H/ k (1). Where, H = length of the Wave (i.e. highest point), k = time taken in completing the stage.
