Gangadhar Chalapaka · 2009
The main objective of this thesis work is to study the problems in maintaining the computer networks and come up with a system which resolves the issues present in modern networking environments. The objective of this project is to adopt the software engineering approach for the efficient design, implementation and mainte-nance of computer networks and systems. Besides this the enterprise level network managing products which offer a great level of flexibility and ease of use, are at a premium. The outcome of the present study may give an adaptable, cost effective system for organizations. Employing software engineering principles in software development process gives a systematic, disciplined approach to the development, better operation and main-tenance of software products. Software engineering principles are extensively used for application development, but seldom employed for design and implementation of networks. Software engineering concepts like versioning, modeling, documenting and testing can be effectively used for the design and maintenance of networks and
