Authors: Oleg Shats; W. Goldner; Jianmin Feng; Alexander Sherman; Russell B. Smith; Simon Sherman
Year: 2016

A multicenter, web-based Thyroid Cancer and Tumor Collaborative Registry (TCCR, http://tccr.unmc.edu) allows for the collection and management of various data on thyroid cancer (TC) and thyroid nodule (TN) patients. The TCCR is coupled with OpenSpecimen, an open-source biobank management system, to annotate biospecimens obtained from the TCCR subjects. The demographic, lifestyle, physical activity, dietary habits, family history, medical history, and quality of life data are provided and may be entered into the registry by subjects. Information on diagnosis, treatment, and outcome is entered by the clinical personnel. The TCCR uses advanced technical and organizational practices, such as (i) metadata-driven software architecture (design); (ii) modern standards and best practices for data sharing and interoperability (standardization); (iii) Agile methodology (project management); (iv) Software as a Service (SaaS) as a software distribution model (operation); and (v) the confederation principle as a business model (governance). This allowed us to create a secure, reliable, user-friendly, and self-sustainable system for TC and TN data collection and management that is compatible with various end-user devices and easily adaptable to a rapidly changing environment. Currently, the TCCR contains data on 2,261 subjects and data on more than 28,000 biospecimens. Data and biological samples collected by the TCCR are used in developing diagnostic, prevention, treatment, and survivorship strategies against TC.
Towards agile security risk management in RE and beyond
Authors: V. N. Franqueira; Zornitza Bakalova; T. Tun; M. Daneva
Year: 2011

Little attention has been given so far to the process of security risk management at the early stages of system development. Security has been addressed by isolated security assurance practices, some of which consider risks and mitigations but they do not provide an overview of the overall security state of the system being developed. This paper takes the position that (1) these isolated security assurance practices should be fully integrated and should be embedded in short iterations of risk assessment, treatment and acceptance, providing input for updating security requirements and for security risk management, and that (2) available empirical data from public catalogs and databases should be used as a source of expertise, to leverage past experiences, and therefore reduce, although not eliminate, subjectivity of human judgment. Borrowing from the agile software development and project management philosophy, we introduce the idea of a light weight, agile approach to security risk management integrated to the development life cycle.
Fireteam: a small-team development practice in industry
Authors: He Zhang; Huang Huang; Dong Shao; Xin Huang
Year: 2020

Software development is a collective undertaking, and the team’s efficiency is critical in development. In order to reduce project management overheads and improve productivity, a global information and communication technology enterprise institutionalizes an organization wide small-team practice, called fireteams, to tackle the problems arising from human and social aspects, such as amicability, talent, skill, and communications. This paper reports a mixed-method research, which combines archive analysis, interviews and survey, to empirically investigate the characteristics and impacts of fireteam in this industrial setting. We identify three categories of fireteam in terms of its demonstrated characteristics: ordinary agile team with extensions, single-function team, and entire life-cycle team; elaborate four key activities of fireteam, i.e. team formation, maintenance, communication, and meeting. Less communication and management overheads, higher agility & concurrency, and improved personal ability are the three important contributors that increase the productivity of fireteams. Whereas management & leadership effort, divergent understanding of fireteam, and self-organized team are discovered as the three major problems associated with fireteams. Although the benefits of fireteam can be observed from its adoption, this practice does not achieve the enterprise’s anticipations very well. Some considerations and recommendations are also discussed to improve this small-team practice.

Year: 2024

Introduction: This research aimed to assess the impact of integration management, social risk, and technical risk on project management performance within the construction sector in the UAE.Methods: A survey questionnaire was developed by extracting items from existing literature. A random sampling technique was used for data collection, resulting in a final valid response of 288 questionnaires. The data was empirically tested through measurement and structural models using Smart PLS.Results: The study demonstrated reliability, convergent validity, and discriminant validity of the latent constructs. The structural model results confirmed that integration management, technical risk, and knowledge management had a significant effect on construction project performance. Additionally, knowledge management significantly moderated the relationship between integration management and project performance, as well as between social risk and project performance in the UAE.Conclusions: The findings suggest that effective knowledge management can enhance project performance by moderating the impact of integration management and risk factors. Several policy implications were provided based on these results.
Project Management Practitioner Empowerment Program: A Case Study
Authors: R. Tom
Year: 2009

Project Management Practitioner program has been conceptualized as an empowerment initiative, to build greater competence among project management community by adopting organizational processes, quantitative tools, and thereby to bring value to customers using the expertise thus built. Industry trends indicate that project overruns occur broadly due to improper or inadequate estimation techniques, non adoption of quantitative tools and techniques, and inability to foresee risks and deal with them. Also an organizational mastery of project management can contribute largely towards sustainable excellence in project management. This program focuses on a unique Case Study based approach to impart E-Learning training sessions on crucial project management areas like estimation, quantitative project management & risk management, familiarization with organizational tools, rigorous coaching, mentoring & assessment phases and thereby equipping participants with skills necessary to enhance the predictability and productivity within projects. This program is supplementary to PMP certification from PMI©.

Authors: Clara Nensthiel Zorro; Oscar Javier Rodríguez Riveros
Year: 2023

We define a successfully project if it satisfies with time, goals and cost defined when the planning phase is estimated. However, the social impact projects do not have the same stability and is possible that the goals of the project change drastically, principally because the time of activities change frequently, sometimes because the community are not always available.In both cases we have the same structure for develop the project, but in social impact projects the conception of this items has some differences with regular projects due to context and special needs related to communities, all of this, is necessary contemplate it for execute it.Is important recognize that methodology of social impact projects drive carefully, connecting stages and guarantee finalization it.In this paper, we describe the realization of social impact project developed in FUNDAFAM community in Cota, Cundinamarca, sponsored by IEEE HAC, and lead by IEEE UN BOSQUE student branch, developing re use of rain water and sustainable agriculture, project that have been implemented by project management methodologies that let guarantee in set times, increasing the value and benefits to foundation across design and implementation of humanitarian technologies for improvement quality of life the community.This paper, demonstrate how the development of hybrid methodologist brings the success of the project and this experience can support future social impact initiatives. How the strategy of different stages of the project, connected with context of the situation and community, offer benefits that support sustainable development goals keeping the goals defined at the beginning of the project.

Unified Framework for Integrating Blockchain into Supply Chain Systems
Authors: B. Alkhaldi; A. Al-Omary
Year: 2023

The process of integrating blockchain for supply chain systems is generally viewed as a complex process, due to a combination of technical and social factors involved. To ensure undisrupted operations during the integration process, supply chain systems require support from a host of interconnected stakeholders due to the transactions involved and economic cost incurred from delays. To address the challenges that hinder the success of blockchain integration, this study proposes using a modified MOHBSchain framework along with the adoption of agile model of project management, to allow for incremental improvements to the system. This unified supply-blockchain framework serves as a solution to address the dynamic needs of supply chain systems, as it helps improve adoption by focusing on the necessary components to allow blockchain integration with various supply chain system frameworks in the shortest possible time. By prioritizing key features rather than simultaneously developing various areas for improvement, the proposed framework would be able to sustain stakeholder support, as benefits are realized immediately rather than being restricted by project schedules and deadlines. The proposed framework is then applied to a real-world case study, wherein project flow and implementation strategies are recommended to overcome challenges faced. Theoretical application of the framework does have limitations, as geopolitical, administrative, and logistical challenges are not considered.
Project Management Techniques for Managing Cross-Cultural Differences in IT Offshore Outsourcing
Authors: Michael Prifling; R. Gregory; R. Beck
Year: 2008

There have been few empirical studies analyzing project management and control techniques to overcome the problems resulting from cross-cultural differences in IT offshore outsourcing projects. Therefore, our research question is “Which project management techniques can be employed to overcome problems due to cross-cultural differences in IT offshore projects?” which is analyzed through an in-depth interpretive single-case study from the European banking industry. The theoretical basis comprises national culture dimensions, effects of cross-cultural differences on project work, and project management and control theory. Our main conclusions are the identification of three project management techniques that can overcome problems due to cross-cultural differences (“cascading deadline approach”, use of “operational process documents”, and “tight controlling and testing”), as well as the theoretical contribution that outcome control is more effective than behavior control in IT offshore outsourcing contexts.

Authors: Alanah Mitchell
Year: 2024

The rapid adoption of collaboration technologies over the course of the COVID-19 pandemic, combined with the advancement, growth, and proliferation of metaverse technology capabilities, has created a heightened awareness and comfort with the use of advanced collaboration technologies for online and distance education. This paper presents an exploratory study of how metaverse technologies can be adopted for the teaching and learning of project management concepts and skills specifically, as metaverses have been identified as a legitimate tool for the support of virtual projects. As a part of this work, a task was designed and adopted in an undergraduate project management course. Study results related to the teaching and learning of project management as well as student perceptions of metaverse technology adoption show that students were able to work together in a metaverse environment and collaborate with one another to achieve group consensus on a task. Ultimately, the findings from this case can guide future adoptions of metaverse technologies both in and out of the classroom.

Sustainability in Project Management Practices
Authors: Inês Soares; Gabriela Fernandes; J. Santos
Year: 2024

The intersection between sustainability and project management has received significant attention as organizations recognize the criticality of incorporating sustainability practices into their projects. However, incorporating sustainability considerations presents some challenges, requiring the development and adoption of methods, tools and techniques tailored to address sustainability at the project level. Against this backdrop, this study endeavors to develop an understanding of the effective incorporation of sustainability within projects through the micro-level perspective of practices. An online survey was developed based on a comprehensive literature review of which a total of 107 valid responses were collected and analyzed. The results show the most useful sustainable project management practices perceived by experienced project professionals, including ‘Sustainability team management’, ‘Lessons learned towards sustainability’ and ‘Sustainability risk register’, among others. However, a data analysis reveals a prevailing trend marked by the limited perceived usefulness of sustainability practices in the context of project management. Furthermore, through exploratory factor analysis, a clear classification of sustainable project management practices was identified, according to the specific phases of the common project management lifecycle: ‘Initiation and planning’, ‘Execution, monitoring, controlling and replanning’ and ‘Closure’. By providing a set of sustainable project management practices and identifying the underlying factors that elucidate the incorporation of sustainable project management practices across the project management lifecycle, this study extends a guiding hand to practitioners in pursuing successful sustainability integration in their projects. It vividly illustrates that sustainability can be readily incorporated into project-management processes, delivering sustainable products and/or services in a sustainable way, combining both the ‘sustainability of the project’ and ‘sustainability by the project’ perspectives.

A Study on Guesthouse Interior Space Planning Method Based on BIM Topological Relationships
Authors: Yao Kun
Year: 2024

Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology has revolutionized the architectural and construction industries by providing detailed digital representations of buildings, enhancing design efficiency and project management. Despite its widespread application, the utilization of BIM in optimizing interior space planning, particularly in boutique accommodations like guesthouses, remains underexplored. This research addresses the gap by introducing a novel method for interior environment space planning of guesthouses based on the topological relationships derived from BIM data. This study developed a new algorithm that utilizes detailed topology information from BIM in order to make space planning decisions more efficiently, thereby improving space utilization efficiency and guest experience. Through a comprehensive analysis of BIM topological relationships and the application of advanced optimization techniques, our method aims to optimize the use of space while considering the unique constraints and requirements of guesthouse environments. The proposed algorithm demonstrates significant improvements in spatial efficiency and design quality when tested against traditional planning methods on real-world BIM datasets. This research not only contributes a novel approach to the field of architectural design and planning but also offers practical implications for the enhancement of interior spaces in guesthouses, potentially influencing future applications of BIM technology in the hospitality industry.
Rethinking Communication in IT Project Management
Authors: J. McKay; P. Marshall; N. Grainger
Year: 2014

This paper is a response to the call in the Rethinking Project Management (RPM) study for new ways of thinking regarding project management. In particular, this paper presents a critique of existing thinking on communication in project management, and then presents a new model for conceptualizing communication in IT project management. Specifically, the Shannon-Weaver model, on which the Project Communications Management knowledge area in PMBOK is based, is shown to be inadequate when applied to human communications, and an alternative conceptualization is offered in this paper, drawing on alternate theories of communication from Galle and Wittgenstein. Project manager understanding of communication may be improved through recognition of the productive and interpretive aspects of communication and of the role of language games in supporting or thwarting successful communication across stakeholder groups.
A tale of 101 digital stories
Authors: Trevor M. Murphy
Year: 2007

Digital storytelling at Williams has become a standard part of how ITech introduces the use of video to faculty, staff, and students. From 2002 to the present, Williams College has invited Joe Lambert and others from the Center for Digital Storytelling [1] at least once a year to conduct three-day workshops for eight to twelve faculty and staff on digital storytelling. Participants create a three to five minute video from still images, audio narratives, music, and sometimes video. Though learning the technology necessary to create and edit the final videos is definitely part of the workshop, a greater emphasis is placed on the art of storytelling and script writing. The culminating event of the workshop is the movie showing at the end of the three days. The Office for Information Technology at Williams College has in turn used the Center for Digital Storytelling model of teaching digital storytelling to train students how to work with audio/video hardware; collect high quality audio, video, and still images; work with video editing and project management; and get to know each other in a new way. This paper covers the process of teaching digital storytelling and examines the outcomes from providing this training to the faculty, staff, and students of Williams College through interviews with past workshop participants.
