Excerpt from Finding Out What Goes on in a Software Development Organization
The few studies that have investigated the human aspects of programming have relied primarily on student programmers or artificial tasks in laboratory settings [curtis86]. Although these have been informative and useful, their relevance to large scale software development is being increasingly questioned. How representative are such samples and tasks? What kinds of problems, unique to.

Excerpt from Finding Out What Goes on in a Software Development Organization
We would like to recognize the extremely hard work of our collaborators who made all these experiments possible: M. G. Bradac, D. O. Knudson, and D. Loge. Professor Tom Allen at MIT brought us together, while Peter Weinberger, Eric Sumner and Gerry Ramage provided the financial support for this work. Professor
Marcie Tyre of MIT was particularly helpful, providing extensive input along the way and pointing us in the direction of relevant organizational theory literature. W. J. Infosino's early suggestions regarding experimental design issues and A. Caso's editing of the paper are also much appreciated. Finally, we would like to acknowledge the cooperation, work and honesty of the study subjects and their colleagues and management for supporting our work with their participation.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. The author explores the challenges and processes of software development through experiments with two relatively uncommon data gathering sources: time diaries and direct observation. Over several years, researchers gathered information from dozens of software developers in various roles, resulting in an empirical study of how developers spend their time. The book examines the issue of time usage, often a decisive element in optimizing engineering enterprises, and provides detailed findings on discrepancies in data collection depending on the granularity of a given data set. The author concludes that time-based research is not only feasible but can be quite useful for assessing process information. This book will appeal to software researchers, managers, and anyone interested in optimizing project management and engineering resource allocation.
