Integrating Tools for Supporting Software Project Time Management: An Ontology-based Approach
"... Abstract. Project Management is a complex process involving several activities and a large volume of information. There are several tools offering partial solutions for supporting this process, increasing the need for integrating some of them, in order to provide a fuller support to the Project Mana ..."

the following activities: definition of project activities, allocation of human resource to these activities, and scheduling. This initiative was conducted partially following OBA-SI, an Ontology-Based Approach for Semantic Integration, and it was done using a domain ontology built from a Software Process
SCOPE: A Conceptual Framework of Ontology-based Program/Project Scope Control
"... Program management is one of the major vehicles that many owners use to deliver large-scale capital projects such as airports and highway infrastructure. Such programs usually involve huge amount of investment and multiple years of planning, design and construction. Meanwhile, program management tea ..."

project scopes and scope changes throughout the lifecycle of a program. In addition, due to the factor that exiting AEC software tools are highly fragmented, managing program resources and schedules in an ever changing environment becomes extremely difficult. Existing manual approaches are inefficient
Distributing Human Resources among Software Development Projects
, 2001
"... This paper presents a method for estimating the distribution of human resources to be assigned to development projects. The estimation calculates the optimal distribution from the economical point of view (i.e.: that which less costs). To accomplish this, we built an economical model to distribute h ..."

A Hybrid Approach for Software Project Scheduling
"... This research work handles Software project scheduling problem with a hybrid approach. In this, a hybrid approach can handle combination of two different algorithms they are Event Based Scheduler(EBS) and Ant Colony Optimization(ACO). Which provide scheduling and also allocate the resources based on ..."

The MISSION-SPM Approach for Representing and Analyzing Software Projects
"... Abstract—The main objective of software project/process management activities is to ensure that all project deliverables will be provided before project deadlines, all resulted software products will satisfy end-user requirements and development costs will be within the estimated budget. This paper ..."

presents a unified approach for software project/process management which combines object-oriented structures of software development processes with formal models based on (high-level timed) Petri nets. This pairing may be proved beneficial not only for the integrated modelling of software development
Longer-term effects of Head Start
- American Economic Review
, 2002
"... Abstract Public early intervention programs like Head Start are often justified as investments in children. Yet nothing is known about the long-term effects of Head Start. This paper draws on unique data from the Panel Study of Income Dynamics to provide new evidence on the effects of Head Start on ..."

, the important point is that these programs were quite different from Head Start. For example, the Carolina Abecedarian Project randomly assigned children to treatment or nothing. Treatments were provided with an intensive center-based full-day, full-year child care program from 3 months through age 5. Then, all
Defining and Analysing Resource Assignments in Business Processes with RAL?
"... Business processes (BPs) are often analysed in terms of control flow, temporal constraints, data and resources. From all of these aspects, resources have received much less attention than other aspects, specially control flow. Even the standard BP modelling notation (BPMN) does not provide concrete ..."

Firstly, we deal with the assignment of resources to the activities of a BP model, aiming at easing and improving the way resources can be associated with BP activities. Some approaches addressing a
Indicators for Social and Economic Coping Capacity - Moving Toward a Working Definition of Adaptive Capacity”, Wesleyan-CMU Working Paper.

Enterprise Resource Planning: A Business Approach to Systems Development
- PROCEEDINGS OF 32ND HAWAII INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SYSTEM SCIENCES

"... Systems development methodologies have evolved from technical approaches through to a people/organisational focus and more recently an increased emphasis on Business Process Reengineering (BPR) has been witnessed. This evolution reflects both the increasing maturity of information technology and als ..."

In this paper we argue that system development is now entering a new phase of maturity with the advent of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software packages. ERP systems are integrated, enterprise wide systems which
