Research On Agent-Based Method In Software Project Management And Application

Software industry is not only the core of IT industry but also the important component of knowledge economy. Software industry has become the biggest industry in the world. The success or failure of software project directly influences the development of the society. The research on the management of software project has become the extremely important topic. This paper studies the Agent-based method in software project management and its application.Agent meant the client on commission in the economic activities. In the nineties of 20th century, Agent concept has been used in many scientific fields such as distributed artificial intelligence, software engineering, Intranet and Internet, virtual reality etc. Owning to the autonomy, enabled activity, reasoning and advanced communication of Agent, Agent-based software development aroused increasing attention. This paper analyzes the characters and environment of the software project management, studies various development methods. After absorbing the knowledge of software engineering, project management, object-oriented method, system engineering, artificial intelligence, distributed network management system, character and mapping technique, this paper puts forward the Agent-based method in software project management and lucubrates the Agent-based system analysis, system design and programming. It also constructs the Agent-based program model by unified modeling language. Multi-agent based information management in the software project is also one part of the study with the communication language- Knowledge Query and Manipulation Language. At last, construction and application of sandwich Agent in work quantity WBS/communications mechanism of multi-agent cooperation system in tender offer and bidding have been done. This paper provides a systematic and comprehensive technique for software project management. The research and application explore the field of the project management and boost the academic theory of the software project management, investment management and engineering cost management...
