Our California government and its institutions neither Listen nor Care by Dr. M.E. Fayad

The software/system process is the fundamental way of abstracting and implementing software/system functional and non-functional requirements, design, architectures, and software testing. Software process describes the steps required to abstract and develop some goal, usually unified skills. Software Processes transform textbook theories and method descriptions into actual action steps. It is essential to realize that processes are codified steps that describe a particular organization's way of achieving development goals. That means development processes cannot be acquired off the shelf but must be developed over time. Management must support the move to process-based development. The software process must be maintained when schedule pressures loom, or process costs initially slow some development phases. Development Processes are essential for innovation development teams, even in a well-organized group. Individuals will often perceive themselves as less skilled than before, and the routines they have established with others will undoubtedly change. Management must ensure that setting process-oriented development will allow team members to contribute positively. This book: 1.
