TLDR
In this article, a generic 100% product-oriented work breakdown structure (WBS) that can be tailored to any system development project is presented, which can facilitate good system engineering.
Abstract
This paper characterizes systems and system development and in the process develops a generic 100% product-oriented work breakdown structure (WBS) that can be tailored to any system development project. It also describes how such 100% product-oriented WBSs can facilitate good system engineering.

Two Issues Concerning the Use of Earned Value Measurements

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that EVMs should be made at the lowest level of a product-oriented work breakdown structure (WBS) for which budgets are available and should use the "0-100" approach in assessing earned value.

Variance analysis in earned value measurements when large uncertainties exist in underlying estimates

A.M. Ruskin
TL;DR: In this article, the authors address variance analysis in earned value measurements (EVMs) when budgeted costs are based on estimates that have large uncertainties, and a sensible approach to variance analysis is proposed for them.

Development of a Conjoint-CHP Model for Setting and Selecting Technological Alternatives' Module

TL;DR: The selecting process (CHP) after setting technology modular alternatives based on technical couple by Conjoint Analysis (CA) can have several advantages, increasing the accuracy of R&D project evaluation and declining the load of pair-wise comparison.
