Managing Risks of ICT Projects

One of the foremost challenges faced by all Information and Communication Technology (ICT) professionals is how to identify and manage the risks which are inherent in ICT projects. This book addresses these issues and provides insight into the management of ICT project risks.

In general, ICT risk management has not been well understood and is thus one of the major causes of ICT project failure. Having explained the risks which need to be addressed, the book then goes on to provide an approach to risk management which will substantially reduce both the likelihood and the consequent impact of risks should they occur. The risk management approaches described in this book are relevant to both large- and small-scale ICT projects.

An Introduction to Statistics using Microsoft Excel

This is an unusual statistics book in that it contains very few mathematical formulae. This book explains the statistical concepts and then uses Microsoft Excel functions to illustrate how to get results using the appropriate techniques which will help researchers directly with their research. To facilitate learning the book uses lots of examples and because statistics is one of those subjects which is really only ever understood after a considerable amount of practice, data files have been made available on the web for readers' use.
