  1. Excellent References on Software Project Failures on How To Make Software Projects Fail · · Score: 1

    I found the following references to be excellent references on the success/failure of software projects:

    Anti Patterns
    Refactoring Software, Architectures, and Projects in Crisis
    William J. Brown, Raphael C. Malveau, Hays W. "Skip" McCormick III, Thomas J. Mowbray
    ISBN 0-471-19713-0 [1998]
    John Wiley & Sons Inc.

    Death March
    The Complete Software Developer's Guide to Surviving "Mission Impossible" Projects
    Edward Yourdon
    ISBN 0-13-748310-4 [1997]
    Prentice Hall PTR

    I highly recommend the above two references.

    I have had the misfortune to work at my last two jobs at companies that fit the profiles as described in the above two references.
