Automated support for human resource allocation in software process by cluster analysis

Published:03 June 2014Publication History

ABSTRACT

It is widely recognized the potential of using organizational data analysis to enable automated tools supporting process management task. The organizational repositories should be used in an active way to accordingly support dynamic decision-making process in software project management. In this paper, we briefly describe a research aiming to support the human resource allocation process in the software process context based on the analysis of organizational repositories. It intends to provide an organizational data analysis as a mean to take empirical evidence to perform fact-based decisions upon historical and ongoing organizational experiences. As the work is in its beginning, we also present some differences from other already existing approaches and the main challenges to be overcome through completion of this work.
