Abstract

The Quantime project aims at developing a miniature atomic clock suited for the telecom market, requiring a wide operating temperature range (from -40 to +85°C), and a low production cost. The CPT (Coherent Population Trapping) technique for atomic interrogation is used for miniaturization and low power consumption. In the first phase of the project, the clock architecture was chosen, and the main sub-systems were developed. A clock breadboarding demonstrator was assembled and the measured Allan deviation of 1E-11 at 400 s confirms the operation of all the sub-systems.

Project

A project is any undertaking, carried out individually or collaboratively and possibly involving research or design, that is carefully planned to achieve a particular goal. An alternative view sees a project managerially as a sequence of events: a "set of interrelated tasks to be executed over a fixed period and within certain cost and other limitations". A project may be a temporary (rather than a permanent) social system (work system), possibly staffed by teams (within or across organizations) to accomplish particular tasks under time constraints.

Project management

Project management is the process of leading the work of a team to achieve all project goals within the given constraints. This information is usually described in project documentation, created at the beginning of the development process. The primary constraints are scope, time, and budget. The secondary challenge is to optimize the allocation of necessary inputs and apply them to meet pre-defined objectives. The objective of project management is to produce a complete project which complies with the client's objectives.

Project plan

A project plan, according to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK), is: "...a formal, approved document used to guide both project execution and project control. The primary uses of the project plan are to document planning assumptions and decisions, facilitate communication among project stakeholders, and document approved scope, cost, and schedule baselines. A project plan may be sumarized or detailed.
