[comp.software-eng] Description of software development practices

gmat@wuibc.UUCP (Gregory Martin Amaya Tormo) (10/09/88)

	 I have to do a short (5 page) report on software engineering as it
effects the MIS department.  I am hearby requesting first-hand experiences
on how YOU manage software developement at your place of business.  I am
interested in:

	1) What role does software developement play in your company?

	2) How does software developement fit into your MIS department

	3) What strategy does your MIS department use for software
		developement

	4) What are the stakes your MIS department must consider (costs,
		benefits, risks)

	I am also interested in how CASE tools fit into your work
environment, what you do with project management, and if you deal with user
groups within your company in your system developement.

	I want to write a report based on real world experience (since our
prof is always telling us about his real-world experiences, snoozzzzzz).

	Please mail any responses (just a few paragraphs at the most,
please) to the following email address, not the posting reply address.
