A System Dynamics Model That Simulates a Significant Late Life Cycle Manpower Increase Phenomenon

摘要: Available software metrics data from an initially schedule and cost-driven satellite flight project contains a late life cycle staff spike lack of initial rigor in inspection unit testing. In order to study the effects on number varying degree test rigor, Madachy's inspection-based system dynamics model was modified add testing integration feedback loop. This Madachy generated similar manpower rate increase parametric up-front these same defect removal techniques.
