Question 372
According to Brooks, if n is the number of programmers in a project team, then the number of communication path is
A
n(n-1)/2
B
nlogn
C
n
D
n(n+1)/2
Question 372 Explanation: 
● Brooks’ law is an observation about software project management according to which “adding human resources to a late software project makes it later.
● According to Brooks, there is an incremental person who, when added to a project, makes it take more, not less time.
● Brooks introduced a formula to measure the volume of communication within the team. It assumes that every team member needs to communicate with every other team member, in order to perform his or her work.
● Group intercommunication formula measures the number of channels of communication within the project team and can be expressed as n*(n-1)/2, where n is the number of people working on a project.
●With 5 software developers working on a project, the number of channels of communication within the project team becomes 5*(5-1)/2 = 10
● With 10 software developers the number of channels of communication within the project team becomes 10*(10-1)/2 = 45
