Project support and IPSEs (software engineering management)
Paul Rook · 1988
The successful completion of a project can be briefly defined as the development of a product on time, within budget and which meets the customer's requirements for functionality, reliability and quality. The methods available to overcome the problems presented by the task of managing the development of a large and complex system are threefold: define the project process for all the technical engineering disciplines involved also including project management, quality assurance and configuration management; establish the organisation to match the process and support it making the most effective use of real feedback, enabled by the explicit definition of the process, to control the project; and use tools to do the work within the structured process more efficiently by automating the tasks and supporting the process, i.e. IPSE.
