Practical Software Engineering

Practical Software Engineering presents an introduction to software engineering for a first course. Using the C language, the text stresses the themes of software development by teams; the importance of maintenance; reusability; complete and correct documentation; testing throughout the life cycle; and the use of (CASE) computer-aided software engineering tools to boost productivity. The use of dialogues and a continuous case study enhances understanding of the concepts presented. The text is intended for sophomore to senior level students being introduced to software engineering in computer science, management information systems (MIS), data processing, or wherever students are new to the subject.
Practical Formal Software Engineering

Release Date: 2009-01-19
Based around a theme of the construction of a game engine, this textbook is for final year undergraduate and graduate students, emphasising formal methods in writing robust code quickly. This book takes an unusual, engineering-inspired approach to illuminate the creation and verification of large software systems . Where other textbooks discuss business practices through generic project management techniques or detailed rigid logic systems, this book examines the interaction between code in a physical machine and the logic applied in creating the software. These elements create an informal and rigorous study of logic, algebra, and geometry through software. Assuming prior experience with C, C++, or Java programming languages, chapters introduce UML, OCL, and Z from scratch. Extensive worked examples motivate readers to learn the languages through the technical side of software science.
A Practical Handbook for Software Development

Release Date: 1988-02-11
The designer of a software system, like the architect of a building, needs to be aware of the construction techniques available and to choose the ones that are the most appropriate. This book provides the implementer of software systems with a guide to 25 different techniques for the complete development processes, from system definition through design and into production. The techniques are described against a common background of the traditional development path, its activities and deliverable items. In addition the concepts of metrics and indicators are introduced as tools for both technical and managerial monitoring and control of progress and quality. The book is intended to widen the mental toolkit of system developers and their managers, and will also introduce students of computer science to the practical side of software development. With its wide-ranging treatment of the techniques available and the practical guidance it offers, it will prove an important and valuable work.
