Abstract :
Software risk control is becoming increasingly important in the software process. The huge losses reported by many software projects have become unacceptable to software development organisations and their clients. What is required is a method of determining, in the software life cycle, the risk that the project is facing. It is essential to identify the factors influencing the success of the project and estimate the possibility that these influences will cause the project to fail? This paper presents a methodology for software risk control. This methodology comprises several quantitative models for assessing and prioritising the software risks
