Information Technology project management has changed dramatically over recent years. Drawing on the experiences of successful project management beyond the IT industry and synergizing cutting edge research with well-established practices in the IT industry, this book prefigures the 'next normal' in IT project management.As a milestone publication, this book augments and boosts the specialized body of knowledge in IT project management by capturing and consolidating key elements of this knowledge base. Chapters are presented in four distinct sections, each examining a different aspect of IT project management which includes — generic project management methodologies; teambuilding in relation to stakeholder management; the Iron Triangle of Time, Cost, Quality, and Risk; and new and innovative technologies and software for improved project management. Substantiated case studies and practical guidelines are designed to be of value to practitioners at all levels of IT project management: from novices' to experienced practitioners, while collectively elevating the body of knowledge and skills needed. This book aims to upgrade and update the knowledge of current practice to novices; offer pointers to experienced practitioners on potential areas for improvement; and provide innovative insights to undergraduates, researchers and other academics on the development, appreciation and application of IT project management knowledge.

Evolution of Knowledge Science: Myth to Medicine: Intelligent Internet-Based Humanist Machines explains how to design and build the next generation of intelligent machines that solve social and environmental problems in a systematic, coherent, and optimal fashion. The book brings together principles from computer and communication sciences, electrical engineering, mathematics, physics, social sciences, and more to describe computer systems that deal with knowledge, its representation, and how to deal with knowledge centric objects. Readers will learn new tools and techniques to measure, enhance, and optimize artificial intelligence strategies for efficiently searching through vast knowledge bases, as well as how to ensure the security of information in open, easily accessible, and fast digital networks. Author Syed Ahamed joins the basic concepts from various disciplines to describe a robust and coherent knowledge sciences discipline that provides readers with tools, units, and measures to evaluate the flow of knowledge during course work or their research. He offers a unique academic and industrial perspective of the concurrent dynamic changes in computer and communication industries based upon his research. The author has experience both in industry and in teaching graduate level telecommunications and network architecture courses, particularly those dealing with applications of networks in education. Presents a current perspective of developments in central, display, signal, and graphics processor-units as they apply to designing knowledge systems Offers ideas and methodologies for systematically extending data and object processing in computing into other disciplines such as economics, mathematics, and management Provides best practices and designs for engineers alongside case studies that illustrate practical implementation ideas across multiple domains
