For the last several years, SEI Fellow Watts Humphrey, in conjunction with the SEI process program, has been developing techniques to help software engineers better manage and control their work while improving their personal skills and capabilities. This body of work is referred to as the Personal Software Process. The
Personal Software Process (PSP) is a scaled-down version of industrial process
that is suitable for individual use. The
goal of the PSP is to make software engineers aware of the processes they use to
do their work and the performance of those processes. Software engineers set personal goals, define methods to be
used, measure their work, analyse the results, and adjust their methods to meet
their goals.
Who will benefit?This one
day tutorial is designed for engineers and managers who want to better
understand the PSP and its potential impact on their software development
practices. You do not need to be a programmer to attend this introduction
to the principles behind the next wave of process improvement.
Tutorial topics
The tutorial is based on Watts Humphrey’s latest book "A Discipline for Software Engineering". The book is part of the SEI Series in Software Engineering published by Addison-Wesley Publishing Company (ISBN 0-201-54610-8). The tutorial covers the following topics:
