Synopsis

This first book in the Software Lifecycle Automation book series shows software managers how to automate the entire back-end of the software lifecycle (CM to deployment), using knowledge-based process generators and a scalable process execution system, for an ongoing cost that is less than the price of programmer coffee breaks.
