Study Notes
Software Engineering
- Software engineering is the product of software and engineering
- Software is a collection of integrated programs including computer programs and related documentation
- Engineering is the application of scientific knowledge to invent, design, build, maintain, and improve frameworks and processes
- Software engineering is a branch of engineering focusing on the evolution of software using well-defined scientific principles, techniques, and procedures
- The result of software engineering is reliable software products
- Software engineering is required to manage large software, for scalability, and for cost management
- Better software development procedures lead to higher quality software products
Need of Software Engineering
- Higher rate of progress in user requirements and the environment of software is causing the need for software engineering principles, requiring a more scientific approach
- Programming is becoming extensive
- Software procedures need to be based on scientific and engineering ideas to effectively adapt to evolving software
- The cost of programming remains high if proper processes are not used
- Software is continually growing and adapting, which requires ongoing upgrades and quality management
Importance of Software Engineering
- Reduces complexity by dividing problems into smaller, manageable units
- Minimizes the cost by focusing on necessary elements
- Shortens development time through well-defined processes
- Helps manage large-scale projects and provides more scalable solutions
- Creates reliable software with emphasis on tests and maintenance
- Enhances software effectiveness and adherence to standards
Software Engineering Processes Models
- Waterfall Model: A linear and sequential approach where each phase must be completed before the next can begin.
- Requirement gathering and analysis
- System design
- Implementation
- Testing
- Deployment
- Maintenance
- V-Model: An extension of the waterfall, where testing stages correspond to development phases (verification and validation)
- Incremental Model: Developing software in increments, releasing a functional module in every release,
- Iterative Model: An approach that delivers a working product early in the process, then revisits and refines the product over a series of iterations.
- Spiral Model: An evolutionary model that repeatedly refines and develops a prototype through numerous iterations
- Rapid Application Development (RAD) Model: Using automated tools to design and create the product.
- Business modeling, data modeling, process modeling, prototyping, and testing
- Prototyping Model: A simplified version of the final product used to gather feedback from users.
