The Productivity Gains Achieved In Applicability of The Prototype AITOD with Paraconsistent Logic in Support in Decision-Making in Project Remeasurement.

Abstract

This paper addresses the subject of software measurement, namely, the method of Function Point Analysis, which consists in functionally sizing the software. The sizing activity held between customer specialists and suppliers causes disagreements because it involves multiple vague factors that are difficult to quantify. This paper aims to develop the AITOD- Intelligent Decision-making Support system, based on Paraconsistent Annotated Evidential Logic Eτ. This system aims to contribute to the decision-making process of managers. Such methodology has as a precept the materialization of artefacts derived from concepts. The AITOD product has achieved significant improvements in the process of mitigating project recounts. Through the AITOD system, it was verified that 46 projects would result in approval of 28.57% of the projects, 50 projects would result in approval of 64.10% of the projects. With these results, companies would avoid unnecessary expenses and rework. In the scope of the innovative project, the results achieved on the reduction of values spent on project recounting stands out, being proved the viability of the AITOD product.
