The advisor can be asked by the trainee if he/she is in trouble.
Purpose of the Advisor
The task of the advisor is giving the trainee a couple of questions from a predefined catalog. If the trainee chooses one of these questions, the advisor will answer it. The advisor has an own interface in the simulation environment. Advice from the advisor is just snap - shot advice. That means he does not have the possibility to give statements about long time aspects of simulation runs.
Questions
The following list includes advice, which are delivered by the advisor:
- Previous phases should not be forgotten.
Phases always need a previous document as a basis. If this document is missing the phase is doomed to failure. - The previous phase should be finished before starting a new phase.
It is important for following phases, that the previous phase and the emerged previous document has been finished by more than 50% to enable an overlapping of the phases. If this is not the case, the initiated phase fails. The limit of 50% depends on the model. (QA - Model). - The previous phase should be reviewed before starting a new phase.
To build on results of phases, it is important to review these phases. After the review, trainees know that the result of this phase still contains errors. These errors need to be corrected, in order to not adopt them into the next phase. - The previous phase should be corrected based on the review, before starting a new phase.
After the review, it is important to correct the remaining errors to avoid their adoption in following phases. - After testing a correction should be performed
Beside the review, trainees also can make a test to find errors in documents. Those errors also have to be corrected in order to obtain a correct document. - Incomplete documents should be subjected to a further revision.
During a simulation run it happens that single phases satisfy to less requirements or include too much errors. If the advisor recognizes a situation like this, he can react and deliver trainees an advice to improve the phase.
Please note that
| The Feedback of the Advisor can be positive or negative! |
The feedback of the advisor depends on the current state of the phase. If asked that specifications have to revised, it depends on the completeness of the specification - document which feedback trainees get from the advisor. If the specifications are already satisfying, it is communicated to the trainees. If not, trainees get the advice to revise the document. The advisor can not give statements to phases, which have not been started! In this case, the trainee gets a message, which refers that there are not enough data available to evaluate.
