Quality Based Software Project Staffing and Scheduling with Budget and Deadline.

Software project planning is becoming more complicated and important as the size of software project grows. Many approaches have been proposed to help project managers by providing optimal staffing and scheduling in terms of minimizing the salary cost or duration. Unfortunately, the software quality, another critical factor in software project planning, is largely overlooked in previous work. In this paper, we propose the quality based software project staffing and scheduling approach. We provide better software project plans considering quality with either cost bound (Budget) or duration bound (Deadline) for software project managers.
