Software Engineering 8 presents a broad perspective on software systems engineering, concentrating on widely used techniques for developing large-scale systems. Building on the widely acclaimed strengths of the 7th edition, 8 updates readers with the latest developments in the field, whilst maintaining the structure and content of the 7th – easily upward compatible for those using the text in a teaching environment. Features Covers all the latest developments on software engineering, keeping readers up-to-date. Core structure built around the key software engineering activities of specification, design, development, verification and validation and management, makes the subject even easier to grasp and gives students a clear understanding of how these important topics work together. 2 integrated, contrasting case studies flow through the text, continuously giving practical context and examples for topics discussed. Introduces management issues such as project planning early in the book, allowing it to be used in a project based course (where this material should be covered early). Discussion on systems engineering explains the role of software and why systems are more than just software. Significant coverage of requirements and architectural design emphasizing their importance in the overall SE process.
