Features: As computer hardware provides more functionality at increasingly lower prices, the demand for new application software continues to grow. The World Wide Web is expanding at an unprecedented speed, providing more people with more information, and software products must also be developed faster, with better features, performance, and quality. For software engineers developing new products and maintaining existing ones, the pressure is constantly increasing. Architecture-Centered Software Project Planning (ACSPP) is a significant software development methodology for planning software projects. By adopting software architecture in project management, developers will better experience the victory of completing projects on time and within budget, and effectively fulfilling project requirements. This book explains how to leverage software architecture design progress schedules, perform estimations, define scope, and manage development teams to achieve ultimate success. The book covers every aspect of effective project management: planning, organizing, implementing, and measuring. It is written for project managers and software architects, and is also suitable for software developers who wish to gain a deeper understanding of their team's work.
