Over the last four decades, computer systems have required increasingly complex software development and maintenance support. The marriage of software engineering, the application of engineering principals to produce economical and reliable software, to software development tools and methods promised to simplify software development while improving accuracy and speed, tools have evolved that use computer graphics to represent concepts that generate code from integrated design specifications. Practicing Software Engineering in the 21st Century addresses the tools and techniques utilized when developing and implementing software engineering practices into computer systems.
