This book's coverage will break new ground in converting recent consensus on what comprises the fundamentals of project management into basic concepts for professional student. The primary distinguishing feature of this book will be its even, non-controversial treatment of project management fundamentals, placed in the context of state-of-the-art applications. Knowledge in the project management field advances each year as consensus is built through conferences, research, and cooperative standards development. This book will reflect current thinking in the field from a number of sources. One is the Project Management Institute, a professional body for individuals in project-related jobs, as well as educators, trainers and consultants in the field. In addition, privately organized forums (such as Project World, or Brainstorm Systems Integration conferences) add knowledge yearly. A series of research conferences is held worldwide, and seminars held in conjunction with recent conferences and professional papers bring ideas from other professional groups into common use. The experience of the authors in all of these areas will be used to enrich the text content. coverage. Knowledge underlying these perspectives is presently scattered across many books. Bringing them together into one book, explaining differences in how projects operate in various contexts, putting many project roles into proper perspective, all distinguish this survey course from single focus project-centered books already in print. The simplicity of the concepts will make this book distinctive. The book's coverage of content will be intentionally broad. Many of the major books that might be competitors to this book address project management primarily in a narrow band of industries, such as the automotive industry, construction or information systems.
