Do We Need New Management Perspectives for Software Research Projects?

摘要

Creativity and originality are so important success factors so that many researchers are not interested in formal or official process. But uncertainty and risks should be managed for successful outcome of research. The main goal of our research is to initiate the practical and effective SW engineering techniques and tool which can tracking, monitoring, and managing the SW research life-cycle in R&D projects. Researchers are the knowledge works and research process is very similar with feature of adaptive case management. Also many product data management techniques can be applicable for managing research artifacts. With research descriptor configuration item and flexible process managing environment, SW R&D researchers can define their own creative research process or documents and keep tracking the progress at any time.
