In software projects it is crucial to control the
actual project schedule, cost and product quality,
against the project plan. Variations often occur during
the running project, and big ones might have
significant impacts on the whole project. Thus, it is
necessary to identify causes quickly, and take the right
corrective actions in time. This paper provides a threedimensional
software development model, called AHA
(Activity-Human-Artifact). It combines three key
factors, activity, human and artifact, corresponding to
project schedule, cost, and product quality,
respectively. We also define some relevant elements,
attributes and relationships among different
dimensions in the AHA model, and their impacts with
respect to schedule, cost and quality. On the basis of
our model, a project tracking process is developed to
guide analysts to locate potential causes for different
kinds of variations, and effectively correct them in real
projects. We also take a software project as the
application scenario to illustrate our model and the
tracking process identified.
