Aplicação de práticas de gestão e processo de desenvolvimento de software em sistemas especialistas voltados ao processamento digital de imagens

Abstract

This work deals with the application of management practices and software development processes in Digital Image Processing expert systems. The main objective was to develop a structured project management plan, based on the PMBOK Guide and integrated with the Scrum framework, which would cover the specific development phases of digital image processing systems, guaranteeing their management, effectiveness and success. To achieve this goal, a detailed theoretical analysis of the particularities of these practices and processes was carried out, resulting in the creation of a diagram that integrated the theoretical concepts and guided their practical application in the projects of DIPAS, a research group in digital image processing applied to the Agricultural Sciences, at the Escola Agrícola de Jundiaí (EAJ/UFRN). A total of seven digital image processing system development projects were managed, from the definition of requirements to the delivery of final products. The results show that the adoption of management practices based on the PMBOK, in association with Scrum, contributed significantly to structuring the team, improving communication, controlling demands, managing risks and organizing activities throughout the development cycle. In conclusion, the work was essential not only for advancing research in digital image processing, but also for consolidating the practical application of these methodologies in the academic and research context, providing a solid basis for future projects.
