7.10.Tables 7.6 , 7.9 , and 7.10include " number of defects by category and severity level" for requirements, architectural design, and implementation, respectively.

a. List three different categories of defects for requirements.

b. List three different categories of defects for architectural design.

c. List three different categories of defects for implementation.

7.13. Select a program of your choosing (or a program chosen by your instructor).

a. Construct a control fl ow graph for one of the modules in the program.

b. Calculate the cyclomatic complexity number for one of the modules in the program.

c. Construct the design fl ow graph for the program.

d. Calculate the design complexity of the program.

e. Assess and assign a value of Very Low, Low, Nominal, High, or Very High to each of the fi ve complexity factors used to determine CPLX in a COCOMO II model for the program. Briefl y explain why you chose the values you assigned to each of the fi ve factors. ( Hint: See Table II- 1 5, page 31, at f tp://ftp. usc.edu/pub/soft_engineering/COCOMOII/cocomo99.0/modelman.pdf .)

f. Assess and assign a value of Low, Medium, or High to the cohesion of each module in the program. Briefl y explain why you chose your assigned values.

g. Assess and assign a value of Low, Medium, or High to the coupling of each module in the program. Briefl y explain why you chose your assigned values.

7.14. A system having an MTTF of 80 hours with as standard deviation of 2 hours would probably be rated higher in reliability than a system having an MTTF of 80 hours and a standard deviation of 40 hours. Briefl y explain why this would be true.

8.9. Using the formulas in Table 8.9 , develop a spreadsheet program to compute the following factors for a software project:

Cost variance (CV)

Schedule variance (SV)

Cost performance index (CPI)

Schedule performance index (SPI)

Estimated actual cost (EAC)

Estimated completion date (ECD)

Cost variance at completion (CVC)

Schedule variance at completion (SVC)

8.10. Apply the spreadsheet program developed in Exercise 8.9 to compute the values listed in the exercise.

a. Use the following set of data: BCWP = $ 40K, ACWP = $ 50K, and BCWS = $ 60K. Assume that BAC = $ 200K, SCD = 12 months, and that the project is at the end of the third month of a 12 -m onth schedule.

b. Verify the correctness of your spreadsheet by performing the calculations by hand; show your work.

TABLE 8.9 Earned value terminology

Term	Definition	Explanation
BCWP	Budgeted Cost of Work Performed	Cumulative amount of the budget for all tasks completed to date (i.e., the earned value)
ACWP	Actual Cost of Work Performed	Actual cost of all tasks completed to date
BCWS	Budgeted Cost of Work Scheduled	Planned cost of all tasks scheduled for completion to date
BAC	Budget Actual Cost	Planned cost of the total project
SCD	Scheduled Completion Date	Planned completion date of the project
EAC	Estimated Actual Cost	Estimated actual cost of the project based on progress to date
ECD	Estimated Completion Date	Estimated completion date based on progress to date
CV	Cost Variance	CV = ACWP - BCWP
SV	Schedule Variance	SV = BCWS - BCWP
CPI	Cost Performance Index	CPI = ACWP / BCWP
SPI	Schedule Performance Index	SPI = BCWS / BCWP
CVC	Cost Variance at Completion	CVC = EAC - BAC
SVC	Schedule Variance at Completion	SVC = ECD - SCD
	where	EAC = BAC * CPI and ECD = SCD * SPI
