1 Understand Scope

Understanding the scope of your project is crucial for setting realistic deadlines. Begin by breaking down the project into smaller, manageable parts. Each part should have its own deadline, creating a roadmap for your entire project. Consider dependencies between tasks and factor in time for research, debugging, and unexpected challenges. By comprehensively understanding what needs to be done and the time it may take, you can set deadlines that are challenging yet achievable, reducing the risk of overcommitment and the stress that comes with it.

A clear scope ensures that everyone involved in the project understands its objectives, deliverables, and constraints. This alignment prevents misunderstandings and keeps stakeholders on the same page. Also, by breaking down the project into manageable tasks or milestones. Each task should be specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART). This breakdown helps in estimating effort and setting realistic deadlines for each task

2 Prioritize Tasks

Prioritizing tasks is an essential step in managing deadlines effectively. Determine which components of your project are critical and which can be deferred if necessary. Allocate more time to complex or high-priority tasks while ensuring that each deadline contributes to the overall project timeline. This approach allows you to focus your energy where it's needed most, ensuring that key milestones are met and the project stays on track without compromising quality.

Use techniques like Eisenhower Matrix (Urgent-Important Matrix) to categorize tasks based on their importance and urgency. Focus on tasks that are both important and urgent first.

3 Time Estimation

Accurate time estimation is a skill that improves with experience. To refine your estimates, review past projects and consider how long similar tasks took to complete. Use this historical data to inform your current project's timeline. Remember to include buffer time for unforeseen issues, as they are common in computer science projects. By setting aside time for these potential setbacks, you'll be better prepared to meet your deadlines without panic.

Time estimation can be tricky as there are some cases we figure out some unplanned effort in the middle of the build phase. But based on my history, the best solution is to understand how much work force do you have on your team, and how much it can do in a certain amount of time. You can achieve that tracking prior projects/tasks and the time they needed to be done, this way we can compare the current project and see what the possible finish date could be, always having a little amount of time to deal with any unplanned circumstances.

Based on my experience, I recommend reflecting on past projects to assess the duration of specific tasks. Use this historical data to inform the time needed for similar tasks in your current project. Additionally, consider applying estimation techniques like analogous estimation (leveraging past data), parametric estimation (based on specific parameters), or expert judgment (seeking insights from experienced team members).

4 Monitor Progress

Regularly monitoring progress against your deadlines is vital. Use project management tools or simple checklists to track completed tasks and upcoming due dates. If you're falling behind, reassess your plan and adjust deadlines before it's too late. This proactive approach allows you to make informed decisions about resource allocation and prioritization, ensuring that your project remains on course.

5 Communicate Clearly

Clear communication with any stakeholders, including team members, clients, or supervisors, is imperative when managing deadlines. Keep them informed about progress and any adjustments to the timeline. This transparency builds trust and allows for collaborative solutions if delays become inevitable. It also helps manage expectations and provides a support system to help overcome obstacles.

6 Reflect and Adjust

After completing a project or reaching a major milestone, take time to reflect on what worked well and what didn't. Analyze whether the deadlines set were realistic and how accurately you estimated the time required for each task. Use these insights to adjust your approach for future projects, continuously improving your ability to set and meet realistic deadlines in the field of computer science.
