The Role of Software Models in Developing New Software Systems; A Case Study in Project Management

Ochimizu, K.

    The collaboration process in a joint project with a Japanese company is introduced. Topics included are the role of software models at each phase of the joint project and the skill set model of the collaboration. We have developed a software project scheduling tool suited to the Japanese work environment. Through the joint project, models play a key role as an effective communication media between Academia and Industry. They are useful for: - Problem-discovery and problem-setting; - Abstraction of the real world to extract necessary information, organizing this data into a useful information structure; - Construction of a mathematical model to assure the generalizability of the theory and the tool; - Visualization of the organizational resource usage state and definitions of several metrics.
