Decision Support System for Software Risk Analysis during Software Development

Abstract

Software Engineering is a profession to provide high quality software to the customers. It is a systematic approach to analysis, design, implementation, maintenance and re-engineering of software. But there are many factors that affect the quality of software. These factors can cause various problems in the projects like increase in complexity, use of more resources, increase in time and budget of the project etc. If effects of risk factors are not estimated it will lead to the failure of the project. To avoid such situation from occurring it is important to estimate the possible effects of the risk factors on the software projects. So, during research it has been tried to find all possible risk factors and find out their interdependencies with each other and a decision support system is proposed to analyze software risks. The results of the tool will help the software developers to take important future decisions
