Sažetak
Software engineering project management is specific project management problem. Lack of the historic data influence on risk white building project plan. Project plan consists of activities and tasks which had to be performed to achieve project goal(s). The author of the project plan can make a complete work breakdown structure needed, but estimation of the effort to complete tasks is stil! high risk area. In the literature articles can be found explaining fall of the quality projects. Reasons found seem big enough only at the first sight. These fictitious reasons inspired us to uncover new comprehension of processes during project execution. The question appears: is the project in execution phase stable or not? If it is stable then with the perfect plan there are no disturbances. Implication: No profound control needed On the other hand it may be unstable and control loop is needed to ensure stability. Many authors use statistics to identify processes that significantly interrelate with stability of the project in execution phase and all of them omit interrelations among processes. At this point of time we present new theory and claim that processes are not stable and worst of all they are even hyper-sensitive. Hyper-sensation means that a small change of one process can cause a huge change of one or many of other processes. Since this is not necessarily true each time that a change occurs, statistics fail to foresee this kind of relations. The benefits of this new theory described in the article are that the project manager could foresee mutual disturbances that may occur while something goes wrong.
