Abstract
Postmortem analysis (PMA) is a practical method for initiating knowledge management by capturing experience and improvement suggestions from completed projects. It requires little effort and quickly provides initial results, making it suitable even for small- and medium-size projects and companies. The authors describe their experiences with applying PMA techniques for collecting and analyzing experience in software organizations
