Software Engineering (9th Edition)

Intended for introductory and advanced courses in software engineering. The ninth edition of Software Engineering presents a broad perspective of software engineering, focusing on the processes and techniques fundamental to the creation of reliable, software systems. Increased coverage of agile methods and software reuse, along with coverage of 'traditional' plan-driven software engineering, gives readers the most up-to-date view of the field currently available. Practical case studies, a full set of easy-to-access supplements, and extensive web resources make teaching the course easier than ever. The book is now structured into four parts: 1: Introduction to Software Engineering 2: Dependability and Security 3: Advanced Software Engineering 4: Software Engineering Management Índice abreviado: 1.

Process improvement One of the earliest student textbooks on the (then) emerging field of software engineering. It presents a view of software engineering as practised in the early 1980s, and is oriented around the notion of the software life cycle - requirements, design, implementation, testing and evolution. Rapidly superceded by later editions because the discipline was changing so quickly at that time. This book discusses a comprehensive spectrum of software engineering techniques and shows how they can be applied in practical software projects. This edition features updated chapters on critical systems, project management and software requirements
