About this title

Synopsis:

The authors’ focus in this book is to deliver software engineering knowledge and skills that readers can put into immediate practical use. The book provides the essential topic coverage required by students of software engineering, from the nuts and bolts of objects to software architecture, from writing code to testing, from software development processes to project management. Working through nine contemporary themes in Software Engineering, students are given an awareness of key issues from understanding the customer and user, evaluating alternative requirements and design, to developing quantitative and logical thinking and effective communication.The book is designed to be used primarily in second-year software engineering courses, but is also widely use in its first edition as an introductory software engineering text at all levels. It will also be valuable to programming practitioners who want to develop a better understanding of modern software engineering.

From the Publisher:

Understanding the customer and the user in the context of use cases, requirements and user interface design
Development based on solid principles and reuseable technology: reuseable software and sets of principles are provided on which students can base their work
Visual modelling using UML as the standard
Evaluation of alternatives in requirements and design teaches students how to make decisions in software engineering
Object-Orientation: in-depth coverage of analysis and design, as well as implementation using Java; object-oriented design patterns are also covered
Iterative development: promoted as the preferred way to develop software
Communicating effectively using documentation: flexible formats are suggested for documentation, with guidelines on how to review it
Risk management in all software engineering activities
