Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Software development efforts are becoming increasingly distributed due to pressures on organizations to reduce cost, to increase throughput, to provide geographically tailored solutions or products, or to take advantage of the know-how and skills of the workforce in a specific region. Such geographical decentralisation of introduces a number of challenges in project management and software engineering. This book presents the experiences and lessons learned from a case study of a distributed product development project. It also includes an overview of current research within the field, and applies the aforementioned information in improving a waterfall-based process model to suit the needs and challenges of globally distributed software development.
