Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for software development in which a project is divided into one or more components and a partial software solution is provided and / or developed for each component.
- the invention corresponds to 'continue to a corresponding device and a Computerpro- gra m for implementing the method.
- the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a method and a device for software development by means of which software projects of any kind can be implemented as far as possible automatically, in particular modules and systems are to be provided which automate individual steps of software development.
- requirements for the development of the partial software solutions for the components of a project and possibly a description of the respective component and / or the project are made available to developers by a central project point via a communication network, which can then apply, among several Applicants to develop the same partial software solution at least one developer is selected according to selection criteria.
- the developers can be internal or external programmers or software companies. Any developer who is connected to the communication network can be considered for the realization of the project.
- the Internet an intranet or extranet, can be used as the communication network, and wireless data transmission can also be used within the communication network. The latter is particularly suitable for giving mobile developers access to the communication network.
- An intranet is used for the internal networking of a company, while an extranet is an extended intranet in which external participants with access authorization and several separate networks in the Intranet network work.
- the external networks are interconnected via the Internet. This enables online communication with business partners over the Internet by means of access rights to the respective extranet.
- the invention uses communication networks of this type in order to tender out components of a project, so that developers are able to gain insight into the requirements for software development and / or into a project description and then apply. Here it can be useful and. be necessary to pre-select developers who will then be granted access to the tender. If several developers apply for a subproject, a developer is determined based on previously created selection criteria.
- the respective components / partial orders are transmitted to those developers who have been determined for project implementation by directly addressing the developers or by providing them with access to call up the components. After completion of the developed partial software solutions, these are in turn transmitted via a communication network to the central project site, where they are combined to form the overall software that realizes the project.
- the project itself can be transmitted to the central project center via a communication network.
- the customer or client then acts as a general contractor. This monitors the project, distributes orders to internal and external developers and is qualitative for delivering one integrity software solution responsible.
- the invention enables an almost complete automation of these processes.
- the evaluation criteria include, in particular, the price, quality and speed of the work performed by the developer as well as its availability in time.
- a developer After selecting a developer for a project, it can be automatically blocked for a certain period of time by further projects. On the other hand, a developer can also be enabled to block himself from project offers for a certain period of time. The developer who is eligible for a tender or for a direct offer is then automatically excluded for the period of time determined by him.
- feedback intervals can be set, within which a developer who has been accepted for the project must contact the central project office. If this is not the case, an e-mail and / or SMS message is sent to the respective developer with the request to contact the central project office and to transmit partial solutions that have been completed to date. In this way, the schedule for the project can be monitored and possibly corrected, as well as interval quality monitoring of the partial solutions completed to date. In addition, it can be provided to send (automatically) a message (e-mail) to the project manager in charge at the central project office in the event of defects (timeframe exceeded / quality not perfect), who will then take further steps.
- a predetermined input mask in order to receive the order from the central project location. via which the client communicates all project data to the central project center.
- the project described in the input mask can then be automatically categorized and broken down into individual components by comparing it with data stored in a database.
- the establishment ⁇ invention -Assign a tender module that possibly via a communication network needs to develop a piece of software solution as well. additionally provides the developer with a description of the project or the respective component, with the possibility of feedback from a developer who is interested in participating in the project.
- the call is a public invitation to developers to participate in the project. All requirements may be offered with a brief description on the tender pages generated by the tender module. A number of different tenders can exist at the same time. Developers should signal that they agree to the conditions and want to participate in the project. New offers can be disseminated using the web front end described below, PIM (Personal Information Manager) and the instant messaging module.
- a selection module is advantageous which automatically makes a selection of developers from feedback on a project or individual components of the project. This selection is made using assessment criteria stored in a database for individual developers. The selected candidates are (automatically) informed by the project manager at the central project office. Such a facility consequently allows a fully automated tendering and selection process.
- the device according to the invention has a project management module which offers individual components, for each of which a partial software solution is to be developed, via a communication network to the above-described tendering and selection process or other selected developers , by the module transferring the associated tasks directly to the developer or by means of a developer view providing access to the acceptance of the associated tasks by the developer.
- GUI Graphic User Interface
- this includes a project management module 'on which in a project folder, the properties of a project and in automatically generated workbooks the various tasks required to create a respective software part solution to a component of the project, contains.
- a project folder contains information about a specific project or one of its components, such as a short name, a description, information on priority and status, the project type, the project manager, the customer, the deadline and other comments and additional data such as cost calculation.
- the automatically generated workbooks consist of several linked tasks for different groups or users (project managers, developers). Each task contains a number of properties and information about a specific part of a project, such as Name, description, priority, creation date, name of the creator, deadline, percentage of the part already executed, linked documents, access rights and the like.
- the project management module can have a component and / or task generator, also called an assistant, which divides a project into different components and possibly into further tasks, with this being checked by means of a database with search functions whether the same or similar projects or their components or their tasks software solutions already exist.
- a component and / or task generator also called an assistant
- the assistants can, for example, access information on an input mask into which a project description has been entered.
- the project is then automatically divided into individual components, which in turn can be divided into different tasks.
- a distinction can be made between tasks between parents and children, whereby child tasks can only be carried out after their parent task has ended.
- the automatic creation of workbooks saves a considerable amount of time when processing projects.
- the project management module has a project visualizer that provides a central project point with information, in particular about its individual tasks and the respective work status.
- the responsible project manager can then view the project (tasks that have already been completed and tasks that are still to be completed) in specific time views, and receive detailed information on selected tasks.
- the developer view already mentioned is not only designed for project managers, but also for other users, such as developers. The developers cannot see the entire course of the project, but only the component assigned to them with the corresponding tasks. Suitable wizards can be created for repeated requirements.
- special assistant generator software is implemented.
- An analysis module is available for project managers to collect information from users, employees, tasks, times, Extract average times and other statistical material.
- a special mechanism can be implemented which allows a rollback of the tasks which have been marked as completed but which are not yet real.

- the resource management module is a tool with the corresponding features for client-server resource management with resource time management and project status display.
- This module works with a resource database. All resources (developer resources, hardware resources, software resources etc.) have their own resource form that describes their special properties. These forms are expediently linked to the corresponding user data records in a user database.
- the properties to be recorded are as follows:
- a time card database is advantageous, in which the available human hours, in particular the developer, are stored. These time cards allow a developer to be blocked for a certain period of time if a developer has blocked himself or has been blocked for a certain period of time due to his work for a project. Such (busy) time cards contain information about a developer's employment plan. These time cards can be generated automatically if a developer has been selected for a specific project. It is advisable to automatically adjust the time cards during the software development process (project flow) in the event of changing schedules.
- a powerful query tool can be created by a project time module within the resource management module, which enables the central project unit to determine the current availability and employment times of a certain resource as well as their previous usage time in the project.
- Various filters can be made available for the corresponding queries.
- the device according to the invention contains the tender module already mentioned above, it makes sense to connect it to the resource database in such a way that a tender for developers to take part in the project always takes place when none in the resource database suitable, available resources for all components of a project are available.
- a reporting system and a document manager system are useful additional systems for the device according to the invention.
- a reporting system uses a corresponding message to the central project point, the respective project manager and / or the developer concerned if a task is successfully completed or if it is delayed. This enables better monitoring of project progress.
- a quality control system is furthermore advantageous in that a partial software solution or sections of such a solution transmitted by a developer is subjected to an automatic quality control.
- the source code can be scanned according to certain source code-dependent criteria (eg "Go to" commands, defective or faulty documentation %) and individual software routines can be tested for perfect function, so that statements can be made about the quality
- automatic control messages can be generated to the respective project manager and / or developer, which contain statements about the quality of the delivered product and about any measures to be taken.
- the device provides a module for accepting the order, which contains an order mask, via which a client can transmit a project to the central unit via a communication network.
- an input mask for a project facilitates the automated categorization and division of a project into various components and tasks, as described above.
- WAP interface for wireless data transmission
- WAP front end appropriately configured transmitters / receivers
- WAP front end for project managers and developers.
- Detailed examples of this are contained in the exemplary embodiment.

- Figure 4 shows an example of a rating system.
- Figure 5 gives an overview of the software and hardware platforms that can be used.
- the project management module is a web-based planning software solution that supports multi-project techniques for larger companies. It enables the company to manage and consolidate distributed and time-consuming resources so that measures can be taken in line with the main strategic goal.
- the project management module has an easy-to-use graphical web interface (GUI, Graphic User Interface), which allows the user to create projects quickly and easily on the screen.
- GUI Graphic User Interface
- the data is input and output in the form of a bar chart.
- Project folders are folders with tasks of a specific project or part of a project. Each project has the following basic characteristics:
- a number of documents can be attached to each project, e.g. Project description or cost calculation.
- the user can view a list of all projects assigned to him.
- the projects can be filtered according to various criteria.
- the user can filter out higher priority projects whose deadlines are within the next month.
- the user can create a project manually or using the project wizard (see below), edit it or just open it.
- Each project contains tasks that must be completed in order to continue working successfully on the project.
- Each task is part of a structure in which the tasks are linked. This means that at the highest level of the project there can be any number of tasks, each of which can have individual child tasks (tasks that can only be carried out after the parent task has ended).
- a particular child task can also be a child of more than one task. This means that the corresponding parent tasks must all be completely completed before they can be carried out.
- the structure of the whole is as follows:
- Each task contains the following basic information:
- the project visualizer shown in FIG. 1 provides a comfortable view for project managers to view tasks, to check the status of the project and to be able to make suitable changes if necessary.
- This tool it is possible to view the project time in daily, weekly and monthly views as well as in self-defined time periods.
- Each task is represented by a colored bar with a brief description. The color of the bar is determined by the status of the task: green means “finished”, gray “not yet started” and red “overdue”. The links are symbolized by lines between the bars: red lines mean “hard link", gray " Soft Link " 1 .
- Hard link means that, as is generally the case and described above, the parent task must be completed in order to start the child task
- soft link means that the termination of the parent task is not mandatory. For example, a beta test can be skipped and therefore linked to other tasks using a soft link.
- the project manager By clicking on a bar, the project manager can get detailed information about the task selected in this way in the lower part of the screen. He can also immediately switch to the project information tab. Using this tool, the project manager is able to edit, expand and delete tasks, as well as relink tasks. At the same time, the results of this activity are visualized for him to see.
- the developer view is not only designed for project managers, but also for other users, such as developers.
- the developers cannot see the entire course of the project. Since each task is assigned to a specific developer, each of them has their own order of tasks. There are four types of tasks:
- Waiting in this series of tasks are tasks, the parent tasks of which have all been completed and are waiting to be accepted by a user. After accepting such a task, it is shifted into the user's progressive order. In the queue, the tasks are sorted by priority, age (the time from the date on which the task is included in the queue) was sorted until today) and the deadline (the extreme time at which the task must be completed). A user can independently decide which task to take on. But if there are tasks with higher priority, closer deadline or older age in the order, a warning message appears.
- Each user can be a member of several groups or belong to none at all. Every member of a functional group has the same rights.
- the rights of members of several groups are the sum of the rights they receive from each individual group.
- Workbooks consist of several related tasks for different groups or users. Each task contains a number of properties and information about a specific part of a project.
- Suitable wizards can be created for repeated requirements.
- special assistant generator software is implemented. B.2.5. analysis
- An analysis module is available for managers to extract information from users, employees, tasks, times, average times and other statistical material.
- a special mechanism is implemented, which allows a rollback of the tasks which have been marked as completed, but which are not yet real.
- the resource management module (Resource Management (RM) Module) is a tool equipped with the corresponding features for client-server resource management with resource time management and project status display.
- All resources (developer resources, hardware resources etc.) have their own resource form that describes their special properties. These forms are linked to the corresponding user data records in the user database.
- the properties to be recorded are as follows:
- time card describes when and how much development time he can devote to a project.
- a busy time card is automatically generated.
- a busy time card can also be entered manually. It contains information about the developer's employment plan. The duration of some tasks may change during the development process, after which the schedules will be adjusted accordingly. The season tickets are also automatically modified accordingly. The difference between the data of the availability time card and that of the busy time card results in a human hour resource that is available for other tasks.
- the project time module is a powerful query tool that enables company managers to determine the current availability and employment times of a resource as well as their previous times in the project. It provides the following filters:
- the corresponding resources are listed with the associated times (availability, employment, deployment and total times).
- the individual time module of resource management is a personal work tool that communicates the work status, including the new estimate, to an individual user. It also gives a user an accurate overview of all assigned tasks, even across multiple projects. Basically, it is the same tool as the project time module, only designed for individual purposes.
- the call is a public invitation to developers to participate in the project. All requirements are offered with a brief description on the tender pages. A number of different tenders can exist at the same time. Developers should signal that they agree to the conditions and want to participate in the project. New offers are disseminated using the web front end, PIM and the Inst ⁇ nt-Mess ⁇ ging module.
- a reporting system is provided to monitor project progress
- the user has the option of determining whether appropriate messages should be sent, and if so, the period after which the message should be activated; the latter in percentages based on the duration of the task.
- success or default messages are forwarded to management. This is possible on several levels, according to the company hierarchy. If necessary, the customer can also be informed in a last step.
- bindings All components created by a user (documents, source code, compiled modules, notes) are stored in bindings (Heßer).
- a binding is a collection of components that represents a complete work phase.
- Draft folders are provided to store components that have not yet been completed. Components within a design folder do not have to be version-related. When the user has finished working on the design, he designates it as the current folder and the binding contained in it so far is swapped out as an archive folder. All bindings are saved in the archive folder in the order in which they were accessed, with the most recently archived binding at the bottom.
- the current folder contains the latest version of the source code, the compiled modules and the corresponding documentation and notes.
- ⁇ In the design folder are the components that are currently being worked on. This can be very useful for teamwork.
- Each binding has the following properties:
- the web front end is an integrated, visual, web-based application that enables the user (mainly the developer) to interact with the development center, the project manager and the other members of the project team and to obtain all the necessary information. This application also allows the user to save the part of his task that he has completed centrally.
- the web front end is written in dynamic HTML, using JavaScript and Java, so that the only application required on the client side is a Java-capable browser.
- the PIM application which includes personal PIM, group functions and instant messaging. There are also interfaces to the Workssow Management System module and to the workplace.
- Personal PIM group functions instant messaging
- the workplace is a collection of work results (documents, source codes etc.) that are necessary for the development cycle.
- the users work with bindings, which represent a software development cycle. Bindings are classified in Current, Archive and Draft according to the rules in the
- Bindings can include the following sections:
- Sections can be added, changed and deleted by the administrator using the project management interface. They will typically include the following information:
- Beta test (results and comments)
- Implementation (results and comments)
- a developer has read and write access only to the implementation section.
- the project manager grants a user limited access to other sections.
- the developers can download any available file and set the corresponding "Update" flag. This allows the user to receive notifications of updates and changes in documents using the PIM module.
- the developer also has access to earlier versions of the files if he uses the version control module, he is able to save his files on his rights and privileges appropriate storage places.
- This interface offers the simple functionality of the following modules: Project planning and management (including workflow management). Managers using WAP are able to see the current status of their project, track events on the critical path and respond to deviations with appropriate adjustments to ensure the continuation of the project.
- Resource management This part of the WAP application allows managers to easily determine the available resources for specific needs and the status of busy resources, as well as to recognize when they are free for new projects.
- the developer has a limited WAP version of his WEB front end.
- the developer is offered the following tools using WAP:
- the basic PIM functionalities are integrated in the WAP front end together with other parts. Users can:
- the Internet application in turn has two areas, a public and a security area.
- the public area is used to receive applications from potential developers and to acquire customers.
- the security area is used for project development.
- Every user of the system has his own user name and password.
- password restrictions There are various options for defining password restrictions: e.g. the password must be at least eight characters long, it must not be used a second time for one year, etc.
- the password must be changed within a defined period. For security reasons, the first login and the corresponding password are made available to the user via Airmail or Express Mail.
- Data traffic between the client browser and server is protected by 128-bit encryption.
- Standard VerySign SSL encryption is used.
- Personal encryption optionally secures the email traffic that takes place outside the internal messaging system.
- Login, logout and other security-related actions are logged in a log file.
- a software firewall can also be installed on the web server to control and limit access.
- a visual interface is provided to enable system administrators to manage and monitor security-related tasks.
- WAP security is ensured from the cell phone to the WAP gateway through the GSM network, and the same SSL security is used from the WAP gateway to the web server.
- the intranet area cannot be accessed from outside. Therefore, the LAN administrator can secure it at the LAN level according to the platform used. d. PIM (Personal Information Manager)
- the PIM overview contains the most important entries of the day: current appointments, tasks, contacts and workflow entries. It is the entry page to the PIM. All information is presented in list form.
- the PIM calendar module offers a calendar with different modes and special functions: data entry mask and data output mask. There are four different views to choose from:
- the appointments can be displayed by category (e.g. only private appointments).
- Each task can be entered with a priority.
- the category is selected using a dropdown box.
- the Personal PIM module already contains core elements of project planning (task / status overview in the form of a status bar)
- the users create the same categories for projects or key accounts (eg category "Payment Module (Java)".
- the group formed in this way could be a team of 17 developers and the project manager, who could now interact with each other under this category).
- the entries In this category, all users involved in this project will be mutually accessible, so that everyone is informed about their own project status and that of their colleagues, so that they can intervene, for example, in the event of a delay Project with tasks with high priority
- the project progress bars for each task which are maintained by the person responsible for this task, are in two colors.
- the red bar indicates the absolute progress of the individual task.
- the yellow bar shows the task progress compared to the previous day.
- the management level sees the overall overview of the project and only intervenes if delays or deadlines are exceeded. The exceeding of deadlines in the individual tasks is also indicated in the overall overview for the management level with a flashing button in the delayed task.
- the management level also sees the schedule entries of the employees involved in the project and can view vacation times and sick reports via the event entries and react if necessary. If there is a need for action Contact via instant messaging directly with all employees who are online possible.
- All registered users can set up new groups.
- the user who created the group is automatically the group administrator, who can perform the following functions:
- the group administrator invites the user to the group. Thereupon a message appears in the staff PIM of the invited user that he has been invited to the group. If the user agrees to the invitation, he is entered in the group as a member and a category "group name" is created in his Personal PIM, under which the group data is displayed.
- the user applies for group membership.
- the group administrator receives a message and decides whether the user is granted membership.
- the user can switch between private and group view.
- Group functions in private view :
- Group contacts are also displayed in the private view "J ontakte” under the category “Group name”.
- Group notes are also displayed in the private view, -Not / zen “under the category” Group name ".
- the module is implemented as a Windows application and can be accessed directly from the TaskBar.
- Double-clicking the IM icon opens the IM window.
- the first view should give an overview of who is currently online:
- blackboard is integrated into the community.
- the blackboard is equipped with the "Search / Offer" function. This makes the system suitable for classified ads.
- the search is based on Boolean rules and full text.
- Discussions can be made via forums. Requests, questions, suggestions can be taken up and dealt with.
- the forums are provided with the rating system. After reading the post, the user can rate the post with points: from "helped me a lot" to "is very bad". The user has the option of searching the discussion forums and sorting the search results by rating points.
- the assessment module is a tool that allows objective criteria to be used to determine intellectual, organizational, and other skills and abilities of developers.
- the results of the evaluation module will be used for employment in future projects.
- an overall assessment takes place for each developer as well as the consideration of a waiting time factor.
- Frequency of errors during the beta test Each criterion is assessed by different teams and departments in our company. The frequency of errors during the alpha test, for example, is assessed by the test department, the user manual by the documentation team, etc.
- each criterion can vary from task to task. For this reason, the project manager is given the opportunity, depending on the degree of difficulty of the project, the time available, the importance of the documentation, etc., to weight each of these criteria in the form of a percentage. A weighting applies to all developers who work on the corresponding task. This eliminates the so-called "human factor" when evaluating different developers.
- the overall rating is the weighted average of all ratings. It is calculated for each developer after each task is performed, based on the weight assigned by the project manager and the evaluation of the relevant departments and teams.
- the waiting time factor is a criterion for determining how long highly qualified developers have not been considered when assigning new tasks. This category is designed to stimulate developers who have been waiting for a task for a long time and have similar qualifications to others who have recently been hired by giving them priority for subsequent tasks.
- the waiting time factor depends on the non-employment times, the employment rate (employment time / availability time), the time of the completion of the last task etc.
- the task evaluation takes place after the completion of each task.
- the average of all task evaluations is one of the most important factors in developer evaluation, in addition to communication skills, cooperation times, etc. E.1.4. Review card database
- a rating card is a collection of developer rating records for all tasks and overall ratings from different periods.
- the evaluation card database contains the evaluations of all developers. The information in this database is available to the resource management module when a query for suitable candidates for a new project is requested.
- a special query tool for direct queries in the evaluation card database is also available. Individual developers can view their own rating card and compare it with the company's average rating.
- Order requests can be recorded on a page on the Internet.
- the customer can enter his or her wishes regarding the applications to be developed as well as their related price expectations.
- the recorded application inquiries can be evaluated using a search function in the know-how database.
- the documentation of previous projects searches for routines similar to those in the desired programs with any combination of search terms.
- ORACLE SQL server It is planned to use an ORACLE SQL server as the database platform.
- the applications access the database via ODBC, ADO and JDBC interfaces. Since a special database access layer is installed between the applications themselves and the database, it will be easy to switch to other databases with ODBC and JDBC interfaces in the future.
- the database hardware platform has no critical requirements; it is configured based on the expected volume of data and transactions.
- the other server-side modules are implemented in Java and C ++. Most of them are platform independent.
- An example is the chat server of the group module, which is implemented in Java and for communication with other parts of the application using XML and TCP / IP.
