Abstract
Object-oriented development has been generalized, but object-oriented project planning and scheduling techniques have not been studied enough. Furthermore, it is difficult to apply the conventional software management techniques to object-oriented projects. Especially, the large scaled projects are increasing, but the project planing techniques for these large scaled projects have not been proposed enough. In this paper, we propose systematic techniques for OO based project scheduling. We suggest a 7 step-process for deriving the OO project schedule from the use-case diagram which is describing the functional requirements of the system. The proposed process includes identifying use-cases, drawing preliminary chart through interdependency analysis, identifying characteristics of each use case, determining the number of iteration, assigning use-cases to iteration, considering available resource and constraints, drawing revised PERT chart. Each step has the explanation of the input, output, and the guidelines needed to perform the step. The project scheduling technique proposed in this paper ran be used effectively in the planning phase which the purpose is to plan a development schedule to yield the high quality software in minimum time.
