Risk Identification, Mitigation and Avoidance Model for Handling Software Risk

Abstract

Risks in software development have emerged over time and so is the risk management. Quiet a few efforts have been done by the individuals and institutions to contribute in this area to help ensuring that the software development can be done without intervention of risks. This paper focuses on proposing a model that takes care of the most frequently occurring risks and provides a way for handling all of them. The sequence of activities for mitigating all risk factors: proposed in this paper are combined in the model. This paper is expected to unleash all the handling and avoidance mechanisms for software risks.
