This first edition of the popular tutorial, Software Engineering,
describes the current state of the practice of software
engineering. This book begins with an overview of current issues
and in particular the engineering of large complex systems. Its
collection of landmark papers goes on to describe the problems that
occur in developing software, and presents the concepts for system
engineering of software intensive systems and of engineering
software products as the solution to the "software crisis."
The text illustrates the phases of the software development life cycle: requirements, design, implementation, testing, and maintenance. Furthermore, it discusses the current practices in requirements and design, and defines software development methodologies, including a special emphasis on object-oriented tools and formal methods. The book also covers programming activities as they affect software engineering, details verification and validation throughout the software life cycle, and discusses software quality assurance, configuration management, and standards. In addition, the book covers project management and risk management concerns, and discusses the various life cycle process models including the spiral and incremental models.
