  2. 1. Software Development Productivity : Evaluation and Improvement for Large Industrial Projects

    Author : Piotr Tomaszewski; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; software development productivity; evaluation; improvement;

    Abstract : Software development productivity can be improved by introducing improvements in many areas. In this thesis we investigate technology and process driven productivity improvements, i.e., productivity improvements that have sources in changes of technologies or in changes in development processes.
