Abstract :
How much is the year 2000 problem going to cost you? How long is it going to take you to get ready? Can you make it in time? The authors offer some practical advice. They consider how a good project planning and project monitoring tool set will be extremely valuable. Cost estimating tools and models will be very important in answering trade-off questions and keeping a handle on the actual impact of the Y2K remediation effort.
