AN ENHANCEMENT OF FRAMEWORK SOFTWARE RISK MANAGEMENT METHODOLOGY FOR SUCCESSFUL SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT

Despite much research and progress in the area of software project management, many software projects have a very high failure rate. This risk is not always avoidable, but it is controllable. The aim of this paper is to propose the new framework software risk management methodology for successful software project. There are 5 main phases such as identification risk, risk analysis and evaluation, risk treatment, risk controlling, risk communication and documentation for software development life cycle. Indeed, our approach focuses on identifying software risk factors, and risk management techniques and on how to manage software risk factors with statistical and mining techniques. Our framework derived data from questionnaires and historical data from software companies. Successful software project risk management methodology will greatly improve the probability of software project success. Keywords:
