The SEI ATAM is used widely in many different settings. The ATAM is a tested process that has been used in many evaluations over the past ten or more years.  If executed as defined, good results can almost be guaranteed. </description><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.sei.cmu.edu/library/abstracts/webinars/10sep2009.cfm</guid><link>http://www.sei.cmu.edu/library/abstracts/webinars/10sep2009.cfm</link><pubDate>Fri, 18 Sep 2009 19:04:30 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Take a Tour of the New SEI Website</title><description>On August 18th, the SEI hosted a webinar to familiarize users with the new SEI site, released at the end of August.
