Dan Galorath Presentation at SEER / Tracer Seminar In Tysons Corner October 2009

It was exciting to participate in a seminar with Computer Aid and their ITMPI recently.  Here we discussed concepts of software management and how Galorath’s SEER with project estimation, planning and control supports CAI’s Tracer product witch does root level process and task management.

Jim Ryan first spoke and discussed how the manufacturing revolution worked and how much of the success in manufacturing process and process measurement can be applied to software development.  And excellent presentation that made a lot of points really apparent.

Next Dan Galorath went through software management techniques (click link to view presentation) that most likely yield successful projects, including estimation (cost estimating, schedule estimating, defect insertion/ removal estimation an more), planning, control, measurement, commitment and other items.
