software development lifecycle.

Reader Reviews
There are a lot of books on Microsoft's Studio Team System that are written from the standpoint of the developer involved with a team development project. These books seem to be lacking the first forty pages or so. That is, they don't explain just what it is that you are trying to do, how to set up a development team, how to administer the Team System software. It turns out that there's a lot more than forty pages in this book, but it covers exactly those points. The book is specifically aimed at project managers, administrators, and IT professionals who are charged with implementing a project. Part one of the book covers planning and implementation of the Team System software and of the project itself. This of course includes working with security and the foundation for server backup and recovery. The second and third parts of the book is the creation of the project itself and the customization of the Team Software system to fit your particular project. The last section includes management of the project from initial steps through completing the project and performing a postmortem as preparation for the next one.
