During which approach do team members first identify as many specific tasks related to the project as possible and then aggregate the specific tasks and organize them into summary activities, or higher levels in the WBS? Mind mapping can be used for developing WBSs using which approach? top-down or bottom-up approach What is a table that lists requirements, their various attributes, and the status of the requirements to ensure that all are addressed referred to as? requirements traceability matrix What is the main technique used in creating a WBS, which involves subdividing project deliverables into smaller pieces? the tendency for project scope to keep getting bigger and bigger What process involves formal acceptance of the completed project scope by the stakeholders? Which action involves normalizing acceptance of the project deliverables and during this phase the key project stakeholders, such as the customer and sponsor for the project, inspect and then formally accept the deliverables? Which action involves defining and documenting the features and functions of the products produced during the project as well as the processes used for creating them? Which action involves reviewing the project charter, requirements documents, and organizational process assets to create a scope statement, adding more information as requirements are developed and change requests are approved? Which approach for constructing a WBS involves refining the work into greater and greater levels of detail? Which approach for constructing a WBS starts with the largest items of the project and breaks them into subordinate items? Which approach for constructing a WBS uses a similar project's WBS as a starting point? Which document contains a deliverable-oriented grouping of the work involved in a project that defines the total scope of the project? Which document should list and describe all of the deliverables required for the project? Which is recommended for the creation of a good WBS? A unit of work should appear at only one place in the WBS Which output documents how project needs will be analyzed, documented, and managed? requirements management plan Which process involves generating ideas by comparing specific project practices or product characteristics to those of other projects or products inside or outside the performing organization? Which process involves identifying and modeling business events, who initiated them, and how the system should respond to them? Which process uses highly organized and intensive workshops to bring together project stakeholders�the sponsor, users, business analysts, programmers, and so on�to jointly define and design information systems? Which statement best describes scope? work involved in creating the products and the processes used to create them Which task is at the lowest level of the WBS? Which technique is used for creating a WBS uses branches radiating from a core idea to structure thoughts and ideas instead of writing down tasks in a list or immediately trying to create a structure for tasks? mind mapping Which term refers to the difference between planned and actual performance? Which process involves developing a working replica of the system or some aspect of the system? Which approach for constructing a WBS starts with the largest?Cards
Which approach for constructing a WBS involves refining the work into greater and greater levels of detail?Cards
What is the main technique used in creating a WBS?ANS: C The main tool or technique involved in creating a WBS is decomposition—that is, subdividing project deliverables into smaller pieces.
Is a WBS construction technique that uses branches radiating from a core idea to structure thoughts and ideas?Mind mapping is a technique that uses branches radiating out from a core idea to structure thoughts and ideas.
