A Handbook of Software and Systems Engineering: Empirical Observations, Laws and Theories
Albert Endres, H. Dieter Rombach · 2003
This book guides students toward the best practice to use when implementing software engineering techniques. It identifies and discusses the rules and laws of developing software. Largely independent of technologies, these rules and laws form the basis for principles underlying software and systems engineering. The book is structured around the software development life cycle, which begins with requirements definition and continues by covering maintenance and withdrawal. This is the first book in the Fraunhofer IESE series in Software Engineering.
