Project Center System
The goal of the Web-Service Based Project Center is to support management and execution of large projects.
The system is described as Web-Service Based because the system is distributed with an underlying transport mechanism
that uses message-passing through web services. Consequently, the system can be composed of parts
that reside on multiple machines in any set of locations accessible from the web .
The Project Center is composed of a set of defined parts embedded in an extensible architecture that supports
the addition of new tools without rebuilding any other part of the system. Some of these parts were built
for this development effort, and some of the parts are available open-source tools, integrated into the Center.
The main functions provided by the Project Center are:
-
Integration of all tools into a unified, extensible, whole via integrating web and WinForm interfaces.
The Web interface consists of an ASP.Net application running on a Project Server that links to other ASP pages,
accessed through browsers on client machines.
The Winform interface consists of WinForm clients that communicate with a Project Server via web-services
that support message-passing.
-
Source control, building, and testing supported by the following open source tools: CVS source control system,
NAnt build system, and NUnit test harness.
-
Tools developed specifically for this application :
-
Schedule and progress tracker, supports scheduling of project milestones, meetings, reviews, integration;
and reporting progress against project milestones.
-
Requirements-database, records and discloses customer and developer requirements.
-
Bug Tracker, supports the definition, and eventually the closure of bugs encountered in development.
-
Change Log, supports recording of every change made to any component under source code control.
- Architectural Review

Instructor's Comments
This project was specified, designed, implemented, integrated, and qualified over a period of 9 weeks.
The system passed all its qualification tests in a thorough and grueling 10 hours of demonstrations and tests.
This success was due not only to diligent and effective
management, but also to the dedicated efforts of all the individual teams, listed below.
Everyone worked very hard on this project and discovered the importance and difficulty of communicating the
many technical and schedule details necessary for developing a large system like Project Center. I have been
very pleased to participate with this fine group on the Project Center development.
