Practical Guide to Project Scope Management
"J2EE Simplified" is for project managers and other team members
with little or no background in J2EE application development
working on Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE) applications.
By the end of "J2EE Simplified," you'll understand and be able
to explain the J2EE application flow. The very simplistic examples
will show you how to follow a user's request to log on to a Web
site as it travels from the Web browser, through the Internet to a
Web server, onto the J2EE application server where the Java
Servlets, Enterprise JavaBeans, and JavaServer Pages executes, and
then responds back to the Web browser.
"J2EE Simplified" goes beyond the basic theory of concepts like
object-oriented analysis and design, object-oriented programming,
Web technologies, and J2EE, explaining how to these technologies
work together in a Web application.
The goal of this J2EE introduction is to provide a foundation
for non-technical project members to use and build upon as they
continue to work with these technologies.

updated with new techniques for larger projects
Today, the pace of project management moves faster. Project
management needs to become more flexible and far more responsive to
customers. Using Agile Project Management (APM), project managers
can achieve all these goals without compromising value, quality, or
business discipline. In Agile Project Management, Second Edition,
renowned agile pioneer Jim Highsmith thoroughly updates his classic
guide to APM, extending and refining it to support even the largest
projects and organizations. Writing for project leaders, managers,
and executives at all levels, Highsmith integrates the best project
management, product management, and software development practices
into an overall framework designed to support unprecedented speed
and mobility. The many topics added in this new edition include
incorporating agile values, scaling agile projects, release
planning, portfolio governance, and enhancing organizational
agility. Project and business leaders will especially appreciate
Highsmith's new coverage of promoting agility through performance
measurements based on value, quality, and constraints. This
edition's coverage includes: Understanding the agile revolution's
impact on product development Recognizing when agile methods will
work in project management, and when they won't Setting realistic
business objectives for Agile Project Management Promoting agile
values and principles across the organization Utilizing a proven
