Program Smarter, Not Harder: Get Mission-critical Projects Right the First Time

This volume explains how programmers can write more and better code in less time, using such techniques as rapid application development, software prototyping and improved quality control. It provides a step-by-step plan for improving software quality. The techniques behind the "hottest" computer buzz words are explained, including concurrent engineering, object-oriented programming and rapid applications. Specific examples of what works, taken from the authors' own experiences, are included.
