Software Project Management provides insight to the importance of
careful project management. Topics are presented in the same order that they
appear in the progression of actual projects. The author utilizes his creative
writing background to teach these topics with the tone of a friend sitting
beside each student, rather than as a general lecture on the material.
The text considers the culture of a software project team and the leadership
technique needed to make a project successful. It adds to this foundation the
importance of the process itself. Current software development tools such as
Rational Suite, Microsoft Project, and PSP Studio are also addressed. Basic
measurements are presented with examples from real-world projects, which show
how a project can be monitored, controlled and assessed. Precise directions and
examples are given to illustrate this hands-on method as well as the techniques
a student will need to actually perform project management in a real-life
situation.
