Abstract:

A timeline generation and solving tool is provided to parameterize a project at an application lifecycle management (“ALM”) tool, and generate and solve a timeline of features according to the parameterized project. The Scrum master may re-parameterize the project, causing a new timeline to be generated, solved, and visualized. In this fashion, the Scrum master may rapidly prototype many project parameterizations, resulting in many possible timelines. Without the use of a timeline generation and solving tool which interfaces with an ALM tool, retrieves project features, and converts project features to a common format suitable for computations based on working speeds, a Scrum master would need to generate and check a timeline by hand, and work indirectly by manually copying data out of the ALM tool, leading to a slow and potentially error-prone project roadmapping process which does not permit rapid prototyping of possible timelines.
