Synopsis
This book explores the intricacies of software project management and the challenges associated with schedule estimation, a critical aspect of project success. The author delves into the dynamics of software development, examining how different estimations can significantly impact project outcomes. Historically, software estimation has been a complex and often inaccurate process, leading to cost overruns and schedule delays. The author challenges the notion that a more precise estimate is inherently better, arguing that it must also be evaluated in terms of its impact on project costs and behavior. Using a system dynamics model, the author demonstrates how schedule estimates influence hiring, firing, and productivity decisions, ultimately affecting project outcomes. The book emphasizes the importance of considering the broader context of software development, recognizing that different estimates can create different project realities. The insights presented in this book are invaluable for software project managers, researchers, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the intricate relationship between schedule estimation and software project behavior. The author provides a fresh perspective, challenging conventional wisdom and offering practical guidance for improving the accuracy and effectiveness of software estimation processes.
