All too often, IT project managers are turned loose on todays high-intensity, Internet-time e-business projects with only two words of training: "Good luck!"

Managing High-Intensity Internet Projects is the fast-paced, "just the facts" guide these managers need. This concise, rapid-fire guide identifies the pitfalls, and presents actionable solutions for every stage of the development lifecycle. Legendary IT leader Ed Yourdon systematically addresses virtually every key challenge associated with managing high-intensity Internet development. Coverage includes: managing the difficult negotiations and unique politics of Internet projects, transforming business processes associated with the project, developing successful e-business strategies, managing risk, identifying tools and technologies, and much more. Along the way, Yourdon offers practical solutions for establishing requirements, managing design and coding, performing rapid and effective tests, monitoring progress, and much more. For every developer and manager involved in Internet, e-commerce, or mobile application development.

In June 1997, he was inducted into the Computer Hall of Fame, joining notables such as Charles Babbage, Seymour Cray, James Martin, Grace Hopper, Gerald Weinberg, and Bill Gates.
