In this project a technique called Dynamic Time Warping[#!DTW!#] is used to bring a new perspective into analyzing process data. The software will be able to detect various trends in time perspective and thus help the person conclude what just happened or did not happen in the process.
The deadline for the software product is set to March 15th, 2002. Keeping that in mind, the scheduling will be quite tight, but also realistic. Estimated amount of work time is about three man-months (480 hours). No special budget will be assigned for this project. The software product will be one of the first of its kind and therefore everything has to be done within the project - few if any pre-made software components will be used, except for the standard libraries and interfaces which are described in detail in the technical process plans section.
The client has proven to have a significant amount of dedication towards this project. That said, there should not be any risks involving client's premature project cutbacks.
