Case Method Fast-Track: A Rad Approach (Computer Aided System Engineering) First Edition

4.8 out of 5 stars 3 ratings

Structured software development methods such as CASE Method offer significant productivity gains for business applications, dramatically improving the likelihood of getting it right the first time and reducing the risk of projects running over time and budget. More recently, iterative methods have been introduced with the aim of using rapid prototyping to speed the development process further for suitable projects.
As CASE Method Fast-track: A RAD Approach reveals, the key to success is 'light but tight' project management. It shows how project management techniques must evolve to match the evolution of fast-track development methods, whilst emphasizing the importance of user involvement and training, the evolutionary approach to documentation, and the acceleration and quality that can be provided by CASE tools.
CASE Method Fast-track: A RAD Approach provides a highly practical guide to using rapid prototyping techniques within the CASE Method framework.

    good addition to agile
  • Reviewed in the United States on May 19, 2000
    This book is very clearly written. The chapters are logically ordered and subject details grouped well within the chapters.
    I especially liked the example project that was tracked throughout the book. It helped to tie the concepts together.
    I recommend that you not use this book as an introduction to CASE or RAD methods. I've not read the other books in the series yet but from the titles I suspect that they may be better primers.
