I need the answer to part 8 only. I mentioned part 7 in the question because part 7 is connected with part 8

Part 7:

Project Communications Management Several communications issues have arisen on the Green Computing Research Project in the three months since the project started. Your team had agreed to post all of its work on a shared site, but a couple of team members dont seem to like using the site and prefer to use e-mails and attachments. When they do, other team members cannot easily see the work in one place or provide feedback using the wiki tools. It is also clear that some team members are better researchers and writers than others. When you have weekly confer- ence calls with the webcams, at least a couple of team members dont use the webcam and rely on the audio instead. You find that the meetings rarely end on time because some team members become very talkative. Also, you were grilled by Ito at the last monthly program review meeting. He thought youd be much further along in the project by now and expects you to have a recommendation for a promising green computing project by next month. You havent seen any great ideas yet. You want to start having face-to-face meetings at least twice a month, but you know it would make your project go over budget even more. At least the Excel model is going well. You and Matt have put a good deal of time into developing it. If only you had enough good data to put into it. Tasks 1. Write a short memo that describes some of the problems you are facing. You would like to discuss the problems with seasoned, objective project managers to get their advice. 2. Research the use of wikis and address several team members' concerns about using them, especially their fear of having others mess up their work. Document your findings in a short paper. 3. Write a short paper describing how you might approach two of the abovementioned conflicts. Part 8: Project Risk Management Because several problems have occurred on the Green Computing Research Project, as described in the previous section, you decided to be more proactive in managing risks. You also want to address positive and negative risks. Tasks 1. Create a risk register for the project using the risk_register.xls template. Identify six potential risks, including at least two positive risks. 2. Plot the six risks on a probability/impact matrix using the prob_impact_matrix.ppt template. Print the matrix. Assign a numeric value for the probability of each risk occurring and its impact on meeting the main project objectives. Use a scale of 1 to 10 to assign the values, with 10 being the highest. For a simple risk factor calculation, multiply the probability score by the impact score. Document the results in a one-page paper; include your rationale for determining the scores for one of the negative and positive risks. 3. Develop a response strategy for one of the negative risks and one of the positive risks. Enter the information in the risk register and then print the complete risk register. Also, write a one-page paper describing the specific tasks needed to implement these two strategies. Include time and cost estimates for each strategy.

Project Risk Management Because several problems have occurred on the Green Computing Research Project, as described in the previous section, you decided to be more proactive in managing risks. You also want to address positive and negative risks.

Tasks

1. Create a risk register for the project using the risk_register.xls template. Identify six potential risks, including at least two positive risks.

2. Plot the six risks on a probability/impact matrix using the prob_impact_matrix.ppt template. Print the matrix. Assign a numeric value for the probability of each risk occurring and its impact on meeting the main project objectives. Use a scale of 1 to 10 to assign the values, with 10 being the highest. For a simple risk factor calculation, multiply the probability score by the impact score. Document the results in a one-page paper; include your rationale for how you determined the scores for one of the negative risks and one of the positive risks.

3. Develop a response strategy for one of the harmful risks and one of the positive risks. Enter the information in the risk register and then print the complete risk register. Also, write a one-page paper describing the specific tasks needed to implement these two strategies. Include time and cost estimates for each strategy.
