Abstract


Some changes may occur during the life cycle of a project, impacting mainly in the time, scope and cost parameters. To reduce the possible negative effects and avoid the commitment of the project success, it is necessary a continuous management of change requests, ensuring that only properly analyzed and also formally approved changes are incorporated in the project baseline. This work has a goal to present an approach based on intelligent agent technology for the automation of change management in projects, assisting project managers in the decision making process of choosing the most appropriate changes to be approved.
