Description & Coverage
Description:

The highly dynamic world of information technology service management stresses the benefits of the quick and correct implementation of IT services. A disciplined approach relies on a separate set of assumptions and principles as an agile approach, both of which have complicated implementation processes as well as copious benefits. Combining these two approaches to enhance the effectiveness of each, while difficult, can yield exceptional dividends.

Balancing Agile and Disciplined Engineering and Management Approaches for IT Services and Software Products is an essential publication that focuses on clarifying theoretical foundations of balanced design methods with conceptual frameworks and empirical cases. Highlighting a broad range of topics including business trends, IT service, and software development, this book is ideally designed for software engineers, software developers, programmers, information technology professionals, researchers, academicians, and students.

Coverage:

The many academic areas covered in this publication include, but are not limited to:

  • Balanced Software
  • Business Trends
  • Conceptual Frameworks
  • Development Challenges
  • Emergent Technologies
  • IT Service
  • Open Source Tools
  • Processes and Standards
