Description
For courses on the development of large client-server and web database systems.
A Methodology for Client/Server and Web Application Development shows you how to impose needed discipline on even the most complex Web and client/server development projects. Fournier's start-to-finish methodology walks you step-by-step through every phase: survey, analysis, design, construction, implementation and beyond. Master powerful techniques for delivering finished software faster, including iterative/incremental development, prototyping, timeboxing and joint facilitated user sessions.
