The author believes that 50 percent of the complexity of a typical IT project can and should be eliminated-and he shows you how to do it. You'll learn a model for understanding complexity, the three tenets of complexity control, and how to apply specific techniques such as checking architectures for validity. Find out how the author's methodology could have saved a real-world IT project that went off track, and ways to implement his solutions in a variety of situations.

Agile Project Management With Scrum

by Ken Schwaber

Through them, you’ll understand how to use Scrum to solve complex problems and drive better results—delivering more valuable software faster. Gain the foundation in Scrum theory—and practice—you need to: <ul> <li>Rein in even the most complex, unwieldy projects </li> <li>Effectively manage unknown or changing product requirements </li> <li>Simplify the chain of command with self-managing development teams </li> <li>Receive clearer specifications—and feedback—from customers </li> <li>Greatly reduce project planning time and required tools </li> <li>Build—and release—products in 30-day cycles so clients get deliverables earlier </li> <li>Avoid missteps by regularly inspecting, reporting on, and fine-tuning projects </li> <li>Support multiple teams working on a large-scale project from many geographic locations </li> <li>Maximize return on investment! </li> </ul>

Software Requirement Patterns

by Stephen Withall

42,39€ + 10% CARD

 <div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> Learn proven, real-world techniques for specifying software requirements with this practical reference. It details 30 requirement "patterns" offering realistic examples for situation-specific guidance for building effective software requirements. Each pattern explains what a requirement needs to convey, offers potential questions to ask, points out potential pitfalls, suggests extra requirements, and other advice. This book also provides guidance on how to write other kinds of information that belong in a requirements specification, such as assumptions, a glossary, and document history and references, and how to structure a requirements specification. A disturbing proportion of computer systems are judged to be inadequate; many are not even delivered; more are late or over budget. Studies consistently show one of the single biggest causes is poorly defined requirements: not properly defining what a system is for and what it’s supposed to do. Even a modest contribution to improving requirements offers the prospect of saving businesses part of a large sum of wasted investment. This guide emphasizes this important requirement need—determining what a software system needs to do before spending time on development. Expertly written, this book details solutions that have worked in the past, with guidance for modifying patterns to fit individual needs—giving developers the valuable advice they need for building effective software requirements </div>
