Performance Evaluation Metrics for Information Systems Development
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a model to measure software development performance, focusing on agent-principal models in projects. The author concentrates on four dimensions of project performance: initial development cost, maintainability, timeliness, and effectiveness. The model developed in the book argues that, in the long term, both the principal and the agent in a project will benefit from improved metrics. The author applies the model and demonstrates how current measurement criteria preference for cost and schedule metrics over effectiveness metrics in software development projects aligns with the model's expectations. The book concludes by suggesting that although the current industry preference is for metrics that measure precision and sensitivity, future developments in software engineering may mean that other metrics become more widely adopted in the field as more complex dimensions of measurement become easier to measure. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781332246373_0
