商品簡介
In this era of globalized e-commerce, demand has outstripped supply for software services. Kotlarksky (information systems, Warwick Business School, UK) and Oshri (strategy and technology management, Rotterdam School of Management, the Netherlands) introduce the recent trend of Globally Distributed Component-Based Development methodologies (GD CBD) such as Enterprise JavaBeans, Microsoft COOM and CORBA. Used in the automotive, electronics, and other industries, CBD architecture is flexible, extensible, reusable, and easier to maintain than monolithic Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) structures. The authors discuss tools and team practices that they have found to be most effective in managing GD CBD projects, e.g., teleconferencing combined with e-meeting, and the theoretical framework. This valuable contribution to this emerging field includes a glossary and real-world case examples of CBD- based ICT. Annotation c2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
