Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a development approval support system and a storage medium for checking the validity of a product or software development plan.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when a product or software (hereinafter collectively referred to as a product) is developed, a system for automatically managing the development progress of the product is already known.

This management system divides a product to be developed into a plurality of development work processes, pre-registers standard plan information on each development work process, and records actual development work status data for each development work process from each worker. When you receive
The actual data is compared with the standard plan information of the corresponding development work process, the work progress is grasped, and an appropriate work instruction is notified to each worker.

[0004] Such a management system merely confirms the progress of product realization, and does not judge the validity of each process in the product development.

[0005]

Accordingly, in recent years, a system has been developed which supports the creation of a product development plan and automatically calculates a period, man-hours, and a target quality index.

However, such a system is
Although the period, man-hours, and target quality index for product development can be automatically calculated, in actual product development projects, there are many peculiar conditions, and in many cases, a project plan cannot be made from the automatically calculated results. In this case, it is necessary to explain to the responsible manager about the period, man-hours, target quality index, and other tools or calculation formulas each time, which is very complicated.

In general, the manager generally has a plurality of projects. To analyze the difference between an individual project and the standard of the project, the manager listens to a detailed situation from the project developer. There is a problem that the necessary change must be indicated and the burden is excessively increased. In particular, a change in the development plan, such as an extension of the delivery date, requires a reason to be convinced, necessitating a detailed investigation or reexamination, and an excessive burden is imposed. In addition, changes in the development plan require not only detailed investigation or reexamination, but also more difficult than making an initial development plan.Therefore, in many cases, the plan is frequently changed during the work. There is a problem that needs to be considered.

Further, there are many managers who can make an appropriate decision based on past know-how, but the know-how is not shared, which naturally causes a judgment difference between the managers. There is also.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a development approval support system capable of automatically identifying a problematic process and asking an approver for instructions.

It is another object of the present invention to provide a storage medium storing a program for performing a process for automatically identifying a process in question.

[0011]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a development approval support system according to the present invention is a development plan data storage means for storing process-specific development plan data of a project created by a developer. A standard development plan data storage means for storing standard development plan data for each process of a standard project related to the project, and a process which becomes a problem from among the development plan data for each process based on an input instruction of an approver. Development plan data which is problematic from the process washing means to be washed out, and the development plan data of the process washed out by the process washing means and the standard development plan data of the same process stored in the standard development plan data storage means. And analysis means for finding out.

According to the present invention, with the above-described configuration, a person in charge prepares standard development plan data for each process of a standard project related to this project in addition to development data for each process of the project in advance. When an input instruction is received from the approver, the process identification means extracts the problematic process from the size relationship of the development plan data for each process, and compares it with the standard development plan data of the same process. Since the data is found, the standard development plan data of the process in question can be automatically extracted and output, and the approver can quickly check the validity of the plan without receiving the explanation from the development staff.

The development approval support system according to the present invention comprises:
A development plan change data storage means for storing process-specific development plan change data with a reason for change of a project created by a developer, and a standard for storing process-specific standard development plan change data of a standard project related to the project A development plan change data storage unit, receiving the input instruction of the approver, and developing plan change data of the process considered as a problem based on the reason for the change and the same process stored in the standard development plan change data storage unit; Current process change data identification means for identifying the largest problem process change data from the standard development plan change data, and the same process stored in the development plan change data and the standard development plan change data storage means for the next and subsequent processes. The next process order change data that identifies the largest problem process change data from the standard development plan change data Stage and a configuration in which an issue data output means for outputting a step basis change data washed out by at least the washout means.

According to the present invention having the above-described configuration, for example, a development plan change data for each process with a reason for change of a project changed based on an initial development plan and the like, and a process of a standard project related to this project. When there is another standard development plan change data, and when an input instruction is received from the approver, the current process change data identification means responds to the development plan change data of the process that is a problem based on the change reason and this process The change data of the largest problem process is extracted from the standard development plan change data, and the change data of the problem process is similarly identified for the next process, and the changed data for each process is output. In addition, the problem change data of each process can be immediately observed, and the problem can be recognized throughout the entire process.

By combining the two development approval support systems described above, the problem process of the initial development plan and the problem process after the change can be easily grasped, and both functions and effects can be achieved. It is.

Further, another development approval support system according to the present invention comprises: a result data storage means for storing process-specific development plan result data of a plurality of past projects; Is sorted in the order of the change reason according to the number of changes of the change reason added to the development plan change data for each process of each project stored in the development plan change data storage means. A sort means for each change reason to be output and one of the change reasons sorted by the sort means for each change reason are designated, and the development plan result data and the process for each process of each project changed by the designated change reason Calculate the average value of process-specific development plan data using one or both of the development plan change data. An average value calculation means, a configuration in which a by reason average value output means for outputting the average value planned average value data by the calculated modified by reason and processes by calculating means.

According to the present invention, with the above-described structure, the sorting means for each reason for change sorts the development plan change data for each project with the reason for change for each project in the order of the reason for change according to the number of times of change of the reason for change. When the one reason for the change is designated after the display, the average value calculating means outputs at least the process-specific development plan result data of the changed project-specific development plan result data and the process-specific development plan change data of each of the changed projects. The average value is calculated and displayed on the planned average data for each reason for change and each process, so that the approver can create standard development plan data while looking at the data, and the standard for process that is likely to cause problems can be created. It is possible to increase the accuracy of creating a development plan.

[0018]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

(First Embodiment) FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing one embodiment of a development approval support system according to the present invention.

This system includes an input device 1 such as a keyboard and a pointing device such as a mouse for inputting initial development plan data necessary for creating a development plan of a product including software, and an input device 1 for inputting data from the input device 1. A development plan database 2 for storing initial development plan data, a standard development plan database 3, a storage medium 4 for storing a problem extracting program for the created initial development plan, and a problem extraction stored in the storage medium 4. It is composed of a plan problem extraction processing main unit 5 configured by, for example, a CPU that executes a problem extraction process of a created development plan stored in the development plan database 2 according to a program for use, and an output device 6.

As shown in FIG. 2, the development plan database 2 stores initial development plan data input from the input device 1 by each process developer or the like, for example, data such as a brief description of the development project and process / plan values. It is stored in a predetermined format, and the outline description of the development project is a part that describes the contents of the project of the initial development plan to the administrator who gives approval so that it can be understood immediately, and other necessary For example, it is conceivable to additionally describe the features of the project. on the other hand,
The process / plan value is created in a table format with the process item as the horizontal axis and the plan value item as the vertical axis. The items of the process include, for example, design, manufacturing, test, and the like, and other necessary items can be added. The items of the plan value include, for example, input costs, quality indices, and production indices. Similarly, if there are other necessary items, the necessary items can also be added.

In this embodiment, the input cost is used as a process / plan value key of the initial development plan data.

The standard development plan database 3 is prepared in advance based on the development plan execution result data of past related projects and the past knowledge and experience of experts and managers, and as shown in FIG. For each process item unit, that is, for <design>, <manufacturing>, and <test>, the standard input cost, which is the key of the process / plan value, and the standard quality index and production index are described as a pair, Created as standard development plan data. In the drawing, the development plan database 2 and the standard development plan database 3 are provided independently of each other. For example, the areas are divided into the same database, and the initial development plan data and the standard development plan data are stored in the corresponding areas. A configuration for storing data may be used.

As the storage medium 4, a magnetic disk is generally used.
D-ROM, DVD-ROM, floppy (registered trademark)
A disc, MO, CD-R, memory card, or the like is used, and the specific program processing flow will be described later.

The planning problem extraction processing main unit 5 reads the problem extraction program stored in the storage medium 4 and implements the following processing means and functions.
Specifically, upon receiving data of the development project summary description and process / plan values, which are initial development plan data input from the input device 1, the development plan database 2 sequentially enters areas based on a predetermined format. The initial development plan creating means 5a to be stored, and among the initial development plans of the development plan database 2 created by the initial development plan creating means 5a, the largest input cost among the input costs which are the key of the process / plan values. A step washing means 5b for washing out the step, a step of comparing the index of the step washed out by the step washing means 5b with the index of the same step stored in the standard development plan database 3, and finding the most different index Based on the plan value analysis means 5c and the analysis results of the process plan value analysis means 5c, the most different indices and development plans Reads the data related to the index of the database 2 are made of the analysis result output unit 5d for displaying on the output device 6.

Next, the operation of the above system or the processing procedure of the program stored in the storage medium 4 will be described with reference to FIG.

Prior to the problem identification of the initial development plan by the present system, the key of the process / plan value for each <design>, <manufacturing>, <test>,. A standard development plan database is created by setting standard values such as a quality index and a production index that are paired with the input cost in the standard development plan database 3. Alternatively, the development staff may set necessary items in the standard development plan database 3 and create the standard development plan database 3 in a format that obtains the approval of the administrator.

In the above state, when the operation of the system is started, a problem extracting program stored in the recording medium 4 is read, and a series of processing means and functions shown in FIG. 3 are realized. That is, based on the problem extracting program, the planning problem extracting process main unit 5 configured by the CPU deletes unnecessary data stored in a buffer memory or the like (not shown) or the like, and executes the processing of the program. If there is necessary data, an initialization process for reading the data and storing it in a buffer memory or the like is performed (S1).

Thereafter, the initial development plan creating means 5a
It is determined whether or not the initial development plan data is input from the input device 1, and when it is determined that there is an input, the initial development plan data is determined based on, for example, an input order or each identification code, and is determined in a predetermined area. The development plan database as shown in FIG. 2 is written by describing the outline of the development project and sequentially writing necessary data in the intersection area between each item of the tabulated process and each item of the plan value. Is created (S2 to S4: initial development plan creation function).

Incidentally, in the initial development plan, in the product development, in the design process, an input cost plan value of 10 man months (for example, 10 people are required for a design period of 3 months), a design test (walk-through: WT) 4 hours, an index A plan consisting of a quality index plan value of 100 cases, etc., a production index plan value of 200 pages, etc. is created. In the manufacturing process, an input cost plan value of 15 man-months, and if the number of production tests is 200, a defect 20 A plan including a quality index plan value of an item and a production index plan value of 800 steps is created, and is created in a similar manner in a test process.

After the initial development plan is created as described above, the process cleaning means 5b is executed. The process identification means 5b determines whether or not a process / plan value key for problem extraction has been input. In the present embodiment, the input cost is the key. Here, when it is determined that the process / plan value key has been input, the magnitude relation of each process corresponding to the input cost is compared, and the process having the largest input cost among the processes is identified or the input cost is determined. Is stored in a buffer memory or the like (S5, S6: process identification function). Here, the largest step among the steps of the input cost is 15
Manufacturing processes that require man-hours can be identified.

Further, the planning problem extraction processing main unit 5 executes a process plan value analyzing means 5c. Since the process plan value analysis means 5c extracts the manufacturing process by washing out the largest process in step S6, it is stored in the quality index, the production index, and the standard development plan database 3 relating to the manufacturing process in the initial development plan. The quality index and the production index of the manufacturing process, which have already been set as standard values, are compared with each other, and which index is the most different is analyzed (S7: process plan value analysis function). Here, since the difference between the 200 quality indices corresponding to the manufacturing process in the initial development plan and the 2000 quality indices corresponding to <manufacture> in the standard development plan is the largest, the standard The quality index and the difference are identified and stored in the buffer memory 7 or the like.

Subsequently, the planning problem extraction processing main unit 5 executes the analysis result output means 5d. In the analysis result output means 5d, after extracting the standard quality index in step S7, the outline description of the project concerned from the development plan database 2, the input cost of the manufacturing process in the initial development plan, the quality index, the production index and the buffer memory are stored. Read out the standard quality index, the difference, etc.
(S8: analysis result output function). At this time, data of all the manufacturing processes in the standard development plan may be displayed.

As described above, the manufacturing process data with the largest input cost and the index having the largest index difference among the corresponding manufacturing processes in the standard development plan are taken out and displayed on the output device 6, so that the administrator who gives investigation / approval is given. Determines whether the displayed manufacturing process data with the largest input cost is appropriate based on the standard development plan, past experience, knowledge, etc., and if a change is required, redo or change the value. The changed development plan is stored in the development plan database 2 (see FIG. 5 described later).

After executing a series of processes as described above, it is determined whether or not it is necessary to perform problem identification for a process having the next largest input cost (S9). Returns to step S6, takes out the next largest process, and repeatedly executes the same processing (S6 to S6).
8).

Therefore, according to the above-described embodiment, the administrator or the like who gives the investigation / approval can reduce the input cost by the process / process.
By inputting as a plan value key, the process of the initial development plan with the highest input cost is identified,
It is determined which of the standard indices in the corresponding process of the standard development plan corresponding to the process of the initial development plan has a large difference, and the result is displayed on the output device 6. It is easy to grasp that the number of tests at the time is extremely small, and a summary of the project is also displayed at the same time, so that the development staff etc. can easily understand the project without having to explain the development plan data for each problem process. The contents can be grasped, and appropriate advice or instructions can be given to the developers.

Further, since the present system stores a standard development plan in the standard development plan database 3 based on know-how such as past experience values, the features of the initial development plan can be easily identified, and different know-hows can be obtained. There is no problem that the quality of the judgment of each manager having a difference is made, and the development plan can be homogenized. Furthermore, the most irrational process of the initial development plan is automatically identified without relying on human judgment, and output together with the corresponding process of the standard development plan, so that the validity can be quickly verified.
Realistic reviews are possible.

In general, it is rare for a manager or the like who immediately gives an investigation / approval to execute a problem extraction process immediately after the initial development plan is created by a developer or the like.
After the initial development plan is created, the problem extraction process is often performed at an appropriate time period relatively early. Therefore, if a program that starts the operation from step S5 is stored in the storage medium 4, processing such as approval by an administrator or the like can be performed smoothly.

In the above embodiment, the input cost is used as the key of the process / plan value. However, a quality index, a production index, and other items may be used instead of the input cost.

(Second Embodiment) FIG. 4 is a block diagram showing another embodiment of the development approval support system according to the present invention. In the figure, the same parts as those in FIG. 1 are denoted by the same reference numerals, and detailed description of those parts will be omitted.

This embodiment is an example in which a problem is identified for each process in development plan change data accompanying a development plan change based on know-how.

Specifically, this system includes, in addition to the input device 1 and the output device 6, a new development plan change database 11, a standard development plan change database 12, and a program for extracting problems in each process accompanying the development plan change. A plan change problem extraction processing main unit 1 configured by, for example, a CPU that executes a problem extraction process of each process according to a storage medium 13 for storing and a problem extraction program stored in the storage medium 4.
4 are provided.

As shown in FIG. 5, the development plan change database 11 stores development plan change data input from the input device 1 in a predetermined format. ) Plan change reason, (2) Current process, (3) Process plan value after correction, and the like.

(1) As the plan change reason, a plurality of expected change reasons are described in advance, and a space for the corresponding change reason is put in the space, or the change reason is directly described in a sentence. May be described. (2) The current process is a process or the like actually extracted by the processing shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, and a description such as “manufacturing process” or “under manufacturing” corresponds to the current process. Also,
(3) The modified process plan values are process plan values changed based on the process plan values in the development plan database 2 shown in FIG. It is created in the corresponding process / plan value area of the plan change database 11.

The standard development plan change database 12
Since the standard development plan database 3 of FIGS. 1 and 2 is created with some problems based on past knowledge and experience in advance, the problem extraction process shown in FIG. As a result of the development of products including programs, problems occur, optimal results cannot be obtained, and various other requirements must be met, so a database specialized in changing standard development plans as know-how As in FIGS. 1 and 2, each process unit, that is, <design>,
For each of <manufacturing> and <test>, a standard quality index, a production index, and other indexes as well as standard input costs are created in pairs.

The storage medium 13 is the same as the storage medium 4 shown in FIG. 1, and a specific series of problem extracting programs will be described later.

The plan change problem extraction processing main unit 14
By reading the problem extraction program stored in the storage medium 13, the following processing means or functions are realized, and the development plan change data input from the input device 1,
For example, upon receiving data such as a plan change reason, a current process, and a process / plan value after the change, the development plan change database 11
A development plan change database creating means 14a for sequentially storing in the area of a predetermined format which is predetermined the database 11 and 12 corresponding to the input cost of the current process. The index washing means 14b, the next-step order index washing means 14c, and the washing means 14b, 1 which sequentially wash the indices having a large difference while judging the presence or absence of the next and subsequent steps.
A problem index output unit 14d for outputting the problem index identified by 4c and other necessary data to the output device 6 is provided.

Next, the operation of the above system or the processing procedure of the program stored in the storage medium 13 will be described with reference to FIG.

Prior to identifying a plan change problem in the development plan data database 11 by this system, as described in the first embodiment, standard development plan change data is set in the standard development plan change database 12 in advance, and standard development Create a plan change database.

In the above state, when the operation of the system starts, the program for problem extraction stored in the recording medium 13 is read, and a series of processing means and functions shown in FIG. 6 are realized. That is, the plan change problem extraction processing main unit 14 configured by the CPU executes the initialization process based on the problem extraction program (S11), and then executes the development plan change database creating means 14a.

This development plan change database creating means 1
4a determines whether or not development plan change data is input from the input device 1, and when it is determined that there is an input, for example, determines the development plan change data based on the input order or each identification code, and By marking or describing the reason for changing the plan and the current process in the area indicated by, and sequentially writing necessary data in the intersection area between each item of the tabulated process and each item of the planned value, FIG. Create the development plan change database 11 as shown (S12-S
14: Development plan change database creation function).

After the development plan change database is created as described above, the current process index identification means 14b is executed. The current process order index identification means 14b refers to the current process and changes the quality index / production index relating to the input cost (20 man months) of the manufacturing process, which is the current process, and the standard development plan change database 12 to the standard. The quality index / production index corresponding to 20 man-months of the manufacturing process stored as the value is compared, and the index having the largest difference is identified (S16). By the way, both databases 11, 12
In the case of 20 man-months with the same input cost, the number of tests in the quality index of one database 11 is 200 and the number of tests in the quality index of the other database 12 is 2000, and the problem index having the largest difference is the number of tests of the quality index. Becomes

Subsequently, the next process order index washing means 14c
Execute The next step order index identification means 14c determines whether or not the next step is present after the identification of the problem index in the current step (S17), and if so, proceeds to step S16 and performs the same processing. Is repeated to identify development plan indicators that are problematic for each process (S16, S16)
17: next process order index washing function). By the way, the <test> process is the next process after the manufacturing process. When both processes are compared, the number of modified steps is 50 and the number of the other steps is 100. The index is the number of correction steps of the production index.

When the problem index of each process is identified as described above, the problem index in the order of the process is sequentially displayed on the output device 6 together with the reason for the plan change and the current process in the development plan change database 11, or the problem of each process is changed. After the indices are sequentially stored in a buffer memory or the like (not shown), after all the subsequent processes have been identified, for example, the plan change reason and the current process in the development plan change database 11 are read out, and each process stored in the buffer memory or the like is read out. Output device 6 with the problem index of
(S18, S19: problem index output function).

Therefore, according to the above-described embodiment, based on the changed development plan and the standard development plan, the quality index / production index and the like are sequentially compared from the current process to the next process, and the difference is large. Since the indicators are identified and output together with the plan change reason and the current process, for example, the administrator who conducts investigation / approval, based on the above output contents, can determine, for example, the number of tests in the development plan that has been changed at the manufacturing stage, which is the current process. In the test stage of the next process, it is easy to grasp that the estimated number of corrected steps is poor, and it is possible to give appropriate instructions to the developer.

In addition, the problems of each plan estimation after the next process, which are generally easy to escape, are also clarified, and the investigator / approver can easily recognize the problem portion over each process.

Incidentally, in general, after the development staff or the like creates the development plan change database 11 and the standard development plan change database 12, the process problem extraction processing is often performed at an appropriate time zone relatively early. . Therefore,
If a program that starts the operation from step S15 is stored in the storage medium 4, only processing such as investigation / approval by an administrator or the like can be performed smoothly.

Further, in this embodiment, the problem of each process is identified only for the change of the development plan and the standard development plan. However, FIG. 1 and FIG. 4 may be used in combination. For example, a development plan database 2, a standard development plan database 3, a development plan change database 11, and a standard development plan change database 12 are provided. By selectively using 13, it is possible to easily approve the initial development plan and the changed development plan.

(Third Embodiment) FIG. 7 is a block diagram showing another embodiment of the development approval support system according to the present invention. In this figure, the same parts as those in FIGS. 1 and 4 are denoted by the same reference numerals, and detailed description of those parts will be omitted.

This embodiment is an example in which effective data is created to support the standard value determination of each process plan value (modified version) for each development plan change reason.

This system includes a development plan change database 11 and an output device 6, a development plan result database 21, a storage medium 22 for storing a know-how extracting program, and a CPU for planning change know-how extraction. A main body 23 is provided.

The contents of the development plan change database 11 are the same as those described in the second embodiment.

The development plan result database 21 is created in a format in which the result data of each process, which is know-how after completion of the development of each project, has a data array configuration of any of the databases 2, 11, and 12, for example.

The plan change know-how extraction processing main body 23
Calculates the number of changes for each plan change reason existing in the development plan change data of each project stored in the development plan change database 11, and sorts the plan change reasons in descending order of the number of changes, for example, the sort means 23a. When one of the plan change reasons rearranged by the reason sorting means 23a is designated,
Data list extracting means 23b for extracting the development plan change data for each process of the project list having the plan change reason from the development plan change database 11 and the development plan actual data for each process of the project list in the development plan actual database 21; Using one or both of the development plan data and actual data for each process in the project list extracted by the means 23b, an average value for each process is calculated in the form of a schema similar to the database 12, for example. Average value calculation means 23
c, a reason-specific average value output means 23d for outputting the average value for each reason / process calculated by the average value calculation means 23c to the output device 6 is provided.

Next, the operation of the above system or the processing procedure of the program stored in the storage medium 22 will be described with reference to FIG.

First, when the operation is started, the plan change know-how extraction processing main unit 23 reads the know-how extracting program from the storage medium 22 and stores it in the buffer memory 26, and then executes the sorting means 23a for each change reason. The sort-by-change reason sorting unit 23a determines whether there is an input instruction for sorting by change reason from the input device 1, and if there is an instruction, attaches to the development plan change data of each project stored in the development plan change database 11. The planned change reasons are counted, the plan change reasons having the largest plan change are rearranged and displayed on the output device 6 (S21 to S2).
3: Sorting function by change reason).

After displaying the plan change reason on the output device 6 as described above, the data list extracting means 23b determines whether any one of the plan change reasons has been designated from the input device 1 and there is designation. In the case of, the development plan change data for each process of each project list stored in the development plan change database 11 changed for the designated reason for change and the same project list or the related project list stored in the development plan actual database 21 Are sequentially read and stored in the buffer memory 26 (S24, S25: data list retrieval function).

Subsequently, the plan change know-how extraction processing main body 23 executes the average value calculating means 23c. The average value calculation unit 23c calculates an average value for each process using one or both of the development plan change data for each process and the actual data for each process (S26: average value calculation function). At this time, when calculating the average value of any one of the data, it is not necessary to take out the other data.

Thereafter, the average value output means 23d for each reason is provided.
Displays the average value of each project for each reason and process on the output device 6 in the form of, for example, the same schema as the standard development plan change database 12 shown in FIG. 4 (see FIG. 9). Provided for determination etc. (S2
7: Average value output function for each reason).

Therefore, according to the above-described embodiment, the average value of the data for each change reason / process of the past project is calculated and displayed on the output device 6, so that the survey / approver can re-execute the development plan. This greatly reduces the burden of conducting a study, and can be effectively used for changes in development plans that are likely to cause problems, and can create highly accurate standard development plan change data based on know-how.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, but can be variously modified and implemented without departing from the gist thereof. Further, the embodiments can be implemented in combination as much as possible, and in that case, the effect of the combination can be obtained. Furthermore, the above embodiments include various upper and lower stage inventions.
Various inventions can be extracted by appropriately combining a plurality of disclosed components. For example, if an invention is extracted because some constituent elements can be omitted from all the constituent elements described in Means for Solving the Problems, the omitted part may be omitted when implementing the extracted invention.
