This unique volume explores cutting-edge management approaches to developing complex software that is efficient, scalable, sustainable, and suitable for distributed environments. Practical insights are offered by an international selection of pre-eminent authorities, including case studies, best practices, and balanced corporate analyses. Emphasis is placed on the use of the latest software technologies and frameworks for life-cycle methods, including the design, implementation and testing stages of software development.
Topics and features:
? Reviews approaches for reusability, cost and time estimation, and for functional size measurement of distributed software applications
? Discusses the core characteristics of a large-scale defense system, and the design of software project management (SPM) as a service
? Introduces the 3PR framework, research on crowdsourcing software development, and an innovative approach to modeling large-scale multi-agent software systems
? Examines a system architecture for ambient assisted living, and an approach to cloud migration and management assessment
? Describes a software error proneness mechanism, a novel Scrum process for use in the defense domain, and an ontology annotation for SPM in distributed environments
? Investigates the benefits of agile project management for higher education institutions, and SPlCä
