The book is organized around basic principles of software project management:planning and estimating, measuring and controlling, leading and communicating, and managing risk. It introduces software development methods, from traditional (hacking, requirements to code, and waterfall) to iterative (incremental build, evolutionary, agile, and spiral). The text illustrates and emphasizes tailoring the development process to each project, with a foundation in the fundamentals that are true for all development methods. Variations unique to each development method are explained. Topics such as the WBS, estimation, schedulenetworks, organizing the project team, and performance reporting are integrated, rather than being relegating to appendices. Each chapter in the book includes an appendix that covers the relevant topics from CMMI-DEV-v1.2, IEEE/ISO Standards 12207, IEEE Standard 1058, and the PMI Body of Knowledge. Three appendices to the text contain a glossary of terms, which is based on and augments IEEE Standard 610; suggestions for term projects; and an annotated template for preparing software project management plans.
