Critical Path Analysis: The path to project enlightenment
The importance of scheduling to a project’s ultimate success cannot be over-emphasized. The "Chaos Report" by the Standish Group and a study by KPMG Canada called, "What Went Wrong? Unsuccessful Information Technology Projects," have both identified schedule overruns as a major cause of project failures.Tools such as Microsoft Project are...

Enhancing Network Intrusion Detection With Integrated Sampling and Filtering
The structure of many standalone Network Intrusion Detection Systems NIDSs centers around a chain of analysis that begins with packets captured by a packet filter, where the filter describes the protocols (TCP/UDP port numbers) and sometimes hosts or subnets to include or exclude from the analysis. This paper argues for...

Understand the critical path to proactively manage your project workplan
It is important to understand the critical path to know where you have flexibility and where you do not. Last week I explained that "critical path" refers to the sequence of activities from project start to end that bump up back-to-back against each other without any float....

Your schedule is complete. Do you know what your critical path is?
The critical path is "critical" because it drives the end date. If the end date for the project has slipped, it is because at least one activity on the critical path did not complete on time. I attended an end-of-project meeting a few years ago. The project was...

Your schedule is complete. Do you know what your critical path is?
Make the Critical Path Non-CriticalWhen laying out a schedule, I find the best way to achieve it is to ensure the critical path is populated with low risk items.Determine the highest risk items, i.e., those with the least predictability and put them in parallel and at the beginning of the...

Context- and Path-Sensitive Memory Leak Detection
This paper presents a context- and path-sensitive algorithm for detecting memory leaks in programs with explicit memory management. The leak detection algorithm is based on an underlying escape analysis: any allocated location in a procedure P that is not deallocated in P and does not escape from P is leaked....

The Next Generation of Static Analysis: Boolean Satisfiability and Path Simulation - A Perfect Match
Static analysis offers the ability to find bugs before software is run, improving code quality and dramatically accelerating the availability of new applications. But excessive false-positive results are the main reason why many source code analysis products quickly become shelfware after a few uses. Now, a groundbreaking new use of...
