Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor

In today's turbulent e-business world, software project teams that survive and thrive won't be those that continue their traditions of optimization, efficiency, and control, but those that exhibit adaptability, speed, and collaboration. Adaptive Software Development is targeted at software teams where competition creates extreme pressure on the delivery process.

Four goals of the book are

* to support an adaptive culture in which change and uncertainty are assumed to be the natural state

* to introduce frameworks to guide the iterative process of managing change

* to institute collaboration, the interaction of people on interpersonal, cultural, and structural levels

* to add rigor and discipline to the RAD approach, making it scalable to the uncertainty and complexity of real-world undertakings.

This innovative text, grounded in the science of complex adaptive systems theory, offers a practical, realistic approach to managing the high-speed, high-change projects characteristic of our highly uncertain economy.
