Riassunto

To fully leverage the value of software architecture in enterprise development projects, you need to expressly and consciously link architecture with project management. This book shows how, drawing on powerful lessons learned at Siemens, one of the world's leading software development organizations. The authors offer insight into project management for software architects, insight into software architecture for project managers, and above all, insight into integrating the two disciplines to maximize the effectiveness of both of them. Learn how to develop cost and schedule estimates for development projects, based on software architecture; how to clarify architecture so projects can be more effectively planned and managed; and then how to use architecture to organize, implement, and measure the project iteratively as work progresses.

Dalla quarta di copertina

Architecture-Centered Software Project Planning (ACSPP) is an important software development methodology for planning software projects. By utilizing software architecture when managing projects, practitioners experience better success completing projects on time and within budget, while effectively fulfilling the project's requirements.

Written for project managers and software architects, Architecture-Centric Software Project Management demonstrates how to draw on software architecture to design schedules, generate estimates, make scope decisions, and manage the development team for a successful outcome. The book addresses each cornerstone of effective project management—planning, organizing, implementing, and measuring.

Dan Paulish provides a wealth of practical, experience-based advice on such topics as:

• Using architecture to define project organization
• Developing realistic schedules
• Using global analysis for project and test planning
• Managing expectations and deciding when to commit
• Building a project culture and an effective team
• Managing tradeoffs and making project decisions
• Risk management and avoiding unpleasant surprises
• Defining project success
• Using architecture for global development

In addition, real-world case studies illustrate the book's strategies, approaches, and techniques. These case studies help the reader fully comprehend the challenges and struggles inherent in software development, and demonstrate how common obstacles can be more easily avoided using an architecture-centric approach.
