New Risk added 27/03/1999:
The System will not meet the performance and timing requirements. This
is a critical issue as adequate response time when the system is fully
loaded with registering students is required.
The performance and loading tests performed on the Architectural
Prototype and Beta Release did NOT meet the specified requirements..
|
Re-assign the Systems Engineers back to the project to further evaluate
the performance and loading problems.
Monitor progress on this risk weekly.
Action: Rick Bell
