Abstract
Experience suggests that projects involving a significant software content run a considerable risk of being completed late and over budget, while the resulting software does not always meet the original design specifications. This is in spite of the fact that the general principles of project management are well understood. This paper discusses the particular difficulties often cited by managers of software projects.
