DayDayUp

A Light-weight todo manager with time estimation tracking.

Introduction

Time estimation is a key need for todo management. DayDayUp helps you to better estimate the completion time of todos via evidence-based scheduling (EBS).

Background

What is the EBS?

EBS is a statistical algorithm that produces ship date probability distributions. It gathers evidence, mostly from historical timesheet data and provides accurate schedules.

EBS produces a probability distribution curve, so that you know for any given date, the probability that your project will be completed.

How the EBS works?

In DayDayUp, each todo has three attributes:

1. real duration : record by DayDayUp, after users finish a todo.
2. estimated duration: set by users when (after) a todo is created. It means that, this todo is supposed to take estimated duration mins to finish.
3. predicted duration: calculate by DayDayUp as the results of the EBS. It is a set of values, representing the bias of estimated duration under different probabilities.

After one todo is created, users can set the estimated duration.

For each unfinished todo, DayDayUp adopts Monte Carlo Method to calculate predicted durations, based on the bias of real durations and estimated durations of finished todos.

Install

Building from source

Make sure you have installed:
