PROCESS DEVELOPMENT METHODOLOGIES
Answer to Question 1
a) Team leader of ten software engineering projects is working on an IT project that is
running late. It has been 8 months and the point is clear that project will not be completed
in deadline.
b) Project Manager needs to prepare a Gantt chart for the IT project that will help in
completing in each phase of the project in assigned time (Meyer and Nordio, 2016). If
each and every stage of the project is complete in given time, then the whole project can
be complete in assigned deadline.
c) Brook law is completely referred to man- month a popular concept in project
management for development of software. It is all about measuring the work done by the
person in one month (Bruegge, Krusche and Alperowitz 2015). As per brooks law man-
month is not considered to be valid measurement of effort. Brook’s law is completely
based on the fact that communication is an important factor in software projects. The
work on software project is not easily portioned into isolated and independent task (Porru
et al. 2017). Brook’s law is an observation in software management in which adding
human resources to software projects can make it late.
Answer to Question 2
Addition of more labor does not become faster in IT projects does not work because of
two reasons:
 Task of Programming is not partitionable

Men
Months
Both Men and Method are known to be interchangeable commodity only when a task can
be easily partitioned among the workers that do not have any communication among them
(Braude and Bernstein 2016). The graph for the scenario has been given below:

(Source: Month, 2019)
If the given the task cannot be partitioned, then it will have sequential constraints. It
merely highlights the fact that increasing the team will not bring any advantage (Foster et al.
2018). Below the graph, provides an idea with respect to Un-Practitionable task.
