Do you ever wonder how it is and why it is that way too much of our software does not work dependably? Remember the last time you hit "update" and discovered you would be busy for the next few hours - or did it just seem like days? Remember seeing the words, "Click on button to download" and there was no button? In "Tales from the e-Trenches" Judy Pagel examines meticulously why our software keeps going wrong and uses that examination to uncover ways we all can improve our software output. Judy was a senior programmer and, later, Project Manager for three of our larger corporations. What she saw, she saw from the inside. - from those who reported to her and from those to whom she reported. And important, she promises to do it so that the reasons are understandable even if you have no background whatsoever in programming or computers. You'll feel at home regardless of whether you have never programmed before, whether you are the stakeholder in a piece of software for your working group, or whether you are actually on a coding team. As an additional plus, an add-on three chapters will provide students information to help them form their career plans, follow them through, and find an appropriate position in the working world.
