{PDF} Foundations of Empirical Software Engineering: The Legacy of Victor R. Basili Barry Boehm, Hans Dieter Rombach, Marvin V. Zelkowitz

Software professionals familiar with process improvement are familiar with the name Victor R Basili. The man and this book are classic and should be on every software engineers bookshelf. I found this book useful and a great foundation for implementing process improvement in any organization. His ideas of experience factory, goal/question/metric paradigm, and the quality improvement paradigm are definitely worth understanding.
