This is not necessarily a large project, but the installation of 10 wireless access points in a company is a complex undertaking that has the potential to impact a lot of stakeholders and also incur a lot of company resources and cost. The Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) is known as the “foundation” of the project (Mathis, 2008). The WBS helps break down the complex tasks into progressively smaller pieces. Basically a $100,000 could be made to look like a bunch of $5000-$10,000 projects. This activity has the scope of most departments in the organization; the WBS assists in coordination and communication with the different departments. What the WBS does best is provide visibility and awareness into any project. This essentially translates into the project teams and sponsors having a good view on the schedule estimates, and also to effectively manage the schedule to ensure that the project gets completed on time. The WBS should be designed with consideration for its eventual uses. The WBS design should try to achieve certain goals:
• Be compatible with how the work will be done and how costs and schedules will be managed,
• Give visibility to important or risky work efforts,
• Allow mapping of requirements, plans, testing, and deliverables,
• Foster clear ownership by managers and task leaders,
• Provide data for performance measurement and historical databases, and
• Make sense to the workers and accountants (Chapman, 2004).
The activity of creating a project plans ensures that the project team has
Software Engineer Patrick Nucci 1 Occupations within the software engineering field are expected to grow faster than other occupations by 22% over the next ten years (Statistics, 2014). My chosen profession requires knowledge of coding, strong analytical skills; mathematical analysis and commitment. Software development engineers design games and it starts with knowing how to code programming languages such as C, C++ and Java. (TryEngineering, 2014) Software engineers demonstrate their unique skills…
Engineering was what I feel like doing since my childhood. Since being a child I was very conscious about how things works and what was really in the machines which make them so interesting? I was always more interested in science subjects than any other subject. So following what I believe I selected science subjects in O levels and then completed my A levels in Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics. I strived hard in the field and got admission in the Software Engineering at University of Bedfordshire…
Computer Software Engineer Software engineers generally need to analyze the users' needs. Once this is done, they design, construct, test, and maintain the needed soft ware or systems. During the programming, or coding, they tell a computer, line by line, how it is to function. They also fix any problems that they run into. They must have strong coding skills, but these engineers are more likely to develop algorithms and solve problems than they are to write code. Software engineers work as part…

I have had some accomplishment which I was proud of but there’s one I remember like it was yesterday. It was back in 2002 when I was 12 years and still in school back in Netherlands where I was raised. I was in year 8 similar to year 11 in this country and was about to go to College. There were 3 classroom and they were all in year 8 and the teachers were going to have a singing competition between the 3 classrooms. At first I was a bit skeptical but I give it a shot. Ten people entered the competition…
the most sought after careers in computing is software engineering. Computer software engineers design and construct new software in order to meet the needs of their clients by writing algorithmic code that is intended to solve a particular problem. They may write helpful applications targeted for individuals, or maybe develop network systems so that companies can record sales or keep track of their contacts. The average yearly salary for a software engineer is around $88,000, of course depending…
