ABSTRACT:
A system and method for determining the stability of a project. One embodiment includes computing at least two project progress parameters of a project for numerically describing elements of the project. Regression parameters are computed based upon the project progress parameters and correlation coefficients are computed utilizing the regression parameters. The correlation coefficients describe the strength of the correlation of the project progress parameters for indicating the stability of the project as project develops.
