The effective management of software projects involves four P-s: people, product,process, and project. The manager that will forget people?s aspect of the software engineering will never achieve success in the management of his projects. The manager who has not a proper communication with the clients in the early stage of the product development risks to create an elegant solution for a wrong problem (task). The manager who pays little attention to the process, risks to apply state-of-the-art technical solutions in the wrong place and the wrong time. This edition will cover different aspects of the software management process: interpersonal communication, management of requirements, risk management, change management, configuration and release management, budget and schedule etc. The methods that are explored in different chapters are: classical Waterfall approach, the Unified process (including RUP), as well as the Agile methodology (including Scrum).
