A research on service oriented architecture for collaborative Web Based Project Management Software

Abstract

No other industry has such a degree of failure in its projects as the IT industry. Really: Designing databases is more of an art than a craft, and the same goes for developing software. In this research the main focus is to keep track of all the projects in software industry. The ongoing projects in the software industry follow the software development life cycle but due to lack of manageability and creeping projects and distributed teams across the globe it is very difficult to manage the team and their communication and to keep them focused on the central goal. The research work aims at implementing web services for project management software. As the number of projects are increasing day in and out project management using traditional method is becoming complicated and the resources that are required for managing the projects are shrinking so we need a project management system that is scalable and can manage multiple projects simultaneously and with good throughput and efficiency. The goal of Service Oriented Architecture for Collaborative Web Based Project Management Software is to produce a product that is delivered on time, within the allocated budget, and with the capabilities expected by the customer. Project management software is basically a properly managed project has a clear, communicated, and managed set of goals and objectives, whose progress is quantifiable and controlled and whose resources are used effectively to efficiently produce the desired product. When properly managed, a project usually has a communicated set of processes that cover the daily activities of the project, forming the project framework. As a result, every team member understands their roles and responsibilities and how they fit into the big picture, thus promoting the efficient use of resources. The research work on Project Management Software will be used to collect the information from the different levels of software development and different peoples involved in the project and product development.
