Abstract :
The knowledge-based Manager Associate, which assists managers in planning, organizing, staffing, scheduling, measuring, visualizing, and controlling software development processes, is described. The Manager Associate operates in a distributed Unix environment in which the manager has access to the software developer workstations through a computer network. The Manager Associate helps managers anticipate problems, which allow early corrective action. As a result, software projects can be developed on time, within budget, and to customer satisfaction
