Software Engineering Principles And Practices 2nd Edition

Software Engineering: Principles and Practices, 2nd Edition

This revised edition of Software Engineering-Principles and Practices has become more comprehensive with the inclusion of several topics. The book now offers a complete understanding of software engineering as an engineering discipline. Like its previous edition, it provides an in-depth coverage of fundamental principles, methods and applications of software engineering. In addition, it covers some advanced approaches including Computer-aided Software Engineering (CASE), Component-based Software Engineering (CBSE), Clean-room Software Engineering (CSE) and formal methods. Taking into account the needs of both students and practitioners, the book presents a pragmatic picture of the software engineering methods and tools. A thorough study of the software industry shows that there exists a substantial difference between classroom study and the practical industrial application. Therefore, earnest efforts have been made in this book to bridge the gap between theory and practical applications. The subject matter is well supported by examples and case studies representing the situations that one actually faces during the software development process. The book meets the requirements of students enrolled in various courses both at the undergraduate and postgraduate levels, such as BCA, BE, BTech, BIT, BIS, BSc, PGDCA, MCA, MIT, MIS, MSc, various DOEACC levels and so on. It will also be suitable for those software engineers who abide by scientific principles and wish to expand their knowledge. With the increasing demand of software, the software engineering discipline has become important in education and industry. This thoughtfully organized second edition of the book provides its readers a profound knowledge of software engineering concepts and principles in a simple, interesting and illustrative manner.

System Engineering Analysis, Design, and Development

Praise for the first edition: “This excellent text will be useful to everysystem engineer (SE) regardless of the domain. It covers ALLrelevant SE material and does so in a very clear, methodicalfashion. The breadth and depth of the author's presentation ofSE principles and practices is outstanding.” –Philip Allen This textbook presents a comprehensive, step-by-step guide toSystem Engineering analysis, design, and development via anintegrated set of concepts, principles, practices, andmethodologies. The methods presented in this text apply to any typeof human system -- small, medium, and large organizational systemsand system development projects delivering engineered systems orservices across multiple business sectors such as medical,transportation, financial, educational, governmental, aerospace anddefense, utilities, political, and charity, among others. Provides a common focal point for “bridgingthe gap” between and unifying System Users, System Acquirers,multi-discipline System Engineering, and Project, Functional, andExecutive Management education, knowledge, and decision-making fordeveloping systems, products, or services Each chapter provides definitions of key terms,guiding principles, examples, author’s notes, real-worldexamples, and exercises, which highlight and reinforce key SE&Dconcepts and practices Addresses concepts employed in Model-BasedSystems Engineering (MBSE), Model-Driven Design (MDD), UnifiedModeling Language (UMLTM) / Systems Modeling Language(SysMLTM), and Agile/Spiral/V-Model Development such asuser needs, stories, and use cases analysis; specificationdevelopment; system architecture development; User-Centric SystemDesign (UCSD); interface definition & control; systemintegration & test; and Verification & Validation(V&V) Highlights/introduces a new 21st Century SystemsEngineering & Development (SE&D) paradigm that is easy tounderstand and implement. Provides practices that are critical stagingpoints for technical decision making such as Technical StrategyDevelopment; Life Cycle requirements; Phases, Modes, & States;SE Process; Requirements Derivation; System ArchitectureDevelopment, User-Centric System Design (UCSD); EngineeringStandards, Coordinate Systems, and Conventions; et al. Thoroughly illustrated, with end-of-chapter exercises andnumerous case studies and examples, Systems EngineeringAnalysis, Design, and Development, Second Edition is a primarytextbook for multi-discipline, engineering, system analysis, andproject management undergraduate/graduate level students and avaluable reference for professionals.
