This book address what are known in the software world as "death march" projects. These are projects which because of outrageous constraints, exceed the norm by at least 50%. These constraints may be defined as follows: the development schedule has been compressed to less than half the original time estimated to complete the project, staff has been reduced to less than half the number required to complete the project, or the budget has been cut in half and additional functionality. This book will help you manage and compromise your projects and show you how to survive them. It will show where one should be willing to compromise and where one should be willing to put his job on the line.
