Review: "Although much has been written about object technology and the benefits of this paradigm, there is still a shortage of compiled knowledge about what to expect and to plan for during project implementation. This book provides information managers need to combat the unforeseen challenges that await them, allowing them to survive and ultimately succeed with an object-oriented project."--BOOK JACKET. "To provide practical advice and guidelines for successfully managing an object-oriented project, the author borrows from the seasoned wisdom of numerous experts and successful consultants while also drawing on his personal experience and extensive knowledge. Surviving Object-Oriented Projects: A Manager's Guide points out potential hazards and names workable solutions by addressing the important issues of scheduling, budgeting, staffing, and cost justification. Key points are supported and illustrated through short case studies taken from real object-oriented projects, and an appendix collects these guidelines and solutions into brief "crib sheets" - ideal for handy reference."--BOOK JACKET.
