About the book |
|
| The software community is undergoing unprecedented change. Software companies are finding themselves in a globally competitive and complex world market, where customers are demanding faster, cheaper and better software solutions, where interoperability and functional complexity continue to stress the limits of software development capabilities, and where shelf life of technologies used to develop software is measured in months. Our current mechanistic worldview, while successful through most of the 20 th century, is no longer adequate in such turbulent times. | ||
| In Discovering System Dynamics in Software Engineering, Jim Hart articulates an alternative worldview that emphasizes leading and managing software companies as dynamic, open living systems.
Discovering System Dynamics provides a step-by-step approach in how any software organization can use causal loop diagramming to understand, communicate and solve chronic and interdependent problems that defy solutions using traditional techniques. The result will bring clarity and richer meaning to how we in the software community manage and improve our practices. Click here to read more about this book.
