Abstract :
The personal software process (PSP) is a structured set of process descriptions, measurements and methods that can help engineers improve their personal performance. The PSP provides the forms, scripts and standards that help them estimate and plan their work. It shows them how to define processes and how to measure their quality and productivity. The PSP acknowledges that everyone is unique and that a method that suits one engineer may not suit another. The PSP helps each engineer measure and track his own work so that he can find the method best for him
