Practical Software Testing Feature

Based on the needs of the educational community, and the software professional, this book takes a unique approach to teaching software testing. It introduces testing concepts that are managerial, technical, and process oriented, using the Testing Maturity Model (TMM) as a guiding framework. The TMM levels and goals support a structured presentation of fundamental and advanced test-related concepts to the reader. In this context, the interrelationships between theoretical, technical, and managerial concepts become more apparent. In addition, relationships between the testing process, maturity goals, and such key players as managers, testers and client groups are introduced. Topics and features: - Process/engineering-oriented text - Promotes the growth and value of software testing as a profession - Introduces both technical and managerial aspects of testing in a clear and precise style - Uses the TMM framework to introduce testing concepts in a systemmatic, evolutionary way to faciliate understanding - Describes the role of testing tools and measurements, and how to integrate them into the testing process Graduate students and industry professionals will benefit from the book, which is designed for a graduate course in software testing, software quality assurance, or software validation and verification Moreover, the number of universities with graduate courses that cover this material will grow, given the evoluation in software development as an engineering discipline and the creation of degree programs in software engineering.

Y2K Risk Management: Contingency Planning, Business Continuity, and Avoiding Litigation

Y2K Risk Management: Contingency Planning, Business Continuity, and Avoiding Litigation Review

Y2K Risk Management: Contingency Planning, Business Continuity, and Avoiding Litigation Feature

By now, everyone has heard the horror stories surrounding the Year 2000 problem. Disappearing bank accounts, crashing aeroplanes, misdirected nuclear missiles - these are all issues which have been apparently dealt with. However, despite the best organized, planned and tested efforts, even a responsible business can be at risk from Y2K problems. These problems lie not in the internal systems which may well be ready for all eventualities, but in external supply chains which could fail and cause unforeseen problems. All businesses, regardless of the level of Y2K readiness, must have a Year 2000 contingency plan in place to ensure continuity through and beyond January 2000. Basically, there are three components to such continuity: testing, risk management, and contingency planning. This text works in unison with two previous titles (Perry "Year 2000 Software Testing" and De Jager "Countdown Y2K") to complete a Y2K survival kit which covers all of these areas necessary for business success. Furthermore, it explains how to undertake precautionary measures such as a legal audit which can mitigate the legal risks resulting from Year 2000 shortcomings. Presenting a phase-by-phase approach to ensuring business continuity in the event of Year 2000 difficulties and failures, this book prepares business and IT professionals in a number of ways. It allows the reader to draw-up checklists and contingency planning templates to ensure a well-organized and comprehensive approach to the impending issues. It guides the professional on a path to recovery after Y2K problems, covering short and long-term steps to restore normal business practices and minimize loss. And when used in conjunction with the other Wiley Year 2000 titles, this book allows the reader to be prepared for Year 2000 issues from all conceivable angles.

Handbook of Molded Part Shrinkage and Warpage (Plastics Design Library)

Handbook of Molded Part Shrinkage and Warpage (Plastics Design Library) Review


See more picture


Handbook of Molded Part Shrinkage and Warpage (Plastics Design Library) Feature

The handbook explains in plain terms why moldings shrink and warp, shows how additives and reinforcements change the picture, sets out the effect of molding process conditions, and tells why you never can have a single ""correct"" shrinkage value. But that's not all. The handbook shows how to alleviate the problem by careful design of the molded part and the mold and by proper material selection. It also examines computer-aided methods of forecasting shrinkage and warpage. And most important of all, the handbook gives you the data you need to work with.

This is the most complete collection of shrinkage data ever made and includes an extensive compilation of hard-to-find multi-point information on how processing, part design, mold design, material and post mold treatment affect the part's final dimensions. Manufacturers' figures for thousands of grades, along with an exhaustive search of magazines, journals, conference papers, books, web sites and brochures combine to make this a powerful resource.

A lot depends on a dimensionally correct molding. Quality, speed to market, profit margins for the molder and toolmaker, the efficiency of secondary and assembly operations, reputation; all these are on the line. The Mold Shrinkage and Warpage Handbook is the book for people who have to live with shrinkage and warpage. It is the only book for people who have to commit themselves.
