商品描述

Superior software productivity requires a relentless focus on people, motivation, and communication. In Improving Software Development Productivity,   world-renowned software engineering expert Dr. Randall W. Jensen introduces a proven, quantitative approach to achieving this focus. Jensen helps you measure your organization’s capacity and productivity, and then use that information to improve multiple facets of developer and team performance, and to build more accurate estimates and schedules.

 

Focusing on management as the principal cost and schedule driver in software projects, he demonstrates a powerful tool based on his Jensen II (Seer) model: the model that underlies many leading software estimation tools. Through real case studies, you’ll learn how to predict the productivity impact of any major management decision, and quantitatively support a transition to “extreme” or “agile” software development environments.

 

For decades, Jensen has been the industry’s go-to expert on improving software project productivity. This book distills his insights and gives you the tools and knowledge to apply them.

 

This book will help you

  • Recognize the centrality of communication and culture, and translate this awareness into quantitative improvements
  • Predict the impact of changes in personnel, management style, development environments, product constraints, and technologies
  • Optimize decision making throughout a project’s lifecycle, and avoid counterproductive changes
  • Understand modern estimating models and parameters, so you can apply them more effectively
  • Formulate more accurate and useful estimates with leading tools such as Sage, REVIC, COCOMO II, and SEER-SEM
  • Maintain firmer control over costs and timeframes in agile or extreme project environments

商品描述(中文翻譯)

優秀的軟體生產力需要對人、動機和溝通保持持續的關注。在《提升軟體開發生產力》一書中,世界知名軟體工程專家Randall W. Jensen博士介紹了一種經過驗證的定量方法來實現這種關注。Jensen協助您測量組織的能力和生產力,並利用這些信息來改善開發人員和團隊績效的多個方面,並建立更準確的估算和進度安排。

他將管理作為軟體項目的主要成本和進度驅動因素,並展示了一種基於他的Jensen II(Seer)模型的強大工具:該模型是許多領先的軟體估算工具的基礎。通過真實案例研究,您將學習如何預測任何重大管理決策的生產力影響,並定量支持向“極限”或“敏捷”軟體開發環境的轉變。

數十年來,Jensen一直是改善軟體項目生產力的行業專家。本書提煉了他的見解,並為您提供應用這些見解的工具和知識。

本書將幫助您:
- 認識溝通和文化的核心地位,並將這種意識轉化為定量改進
- 預測人員變動、管理風格、開發環境、產品限制和技術變化的影響
- 在項目的整個生命週期中優化決策,避免產生反效果的變更
- 理解現代估算模型和參數,以便更有效地應用它們
- 使用Sage、REVIC、COCOMO II和SEER-SEM等領先工具制定更準確和有用的估算
- 在敏捷或極限項目環境中更好地控制成本和時間範圍
