Principles of Software Engineering

* This book tackles fundamental principles on which the methods, tools, and procedures of software engineering rely. * Explains the purposes and goals of requirements engineering, the nature of requirements engineering and its typical problems. * Covers operational requirements and technical specifications, baselines and change control boards, and version control procedures for requirements management. * The book's unifying theme is engineering problems solving and how the generic processes of engineering can be--must be--modified and adapted to account for software's unique aspects. * Each chapter includes exercises and an appendix contains topics for term projects and weekly assignments for completing term projects.
