    Study Notes

    System Engineering

    • Encompasses all aspects of computer-based system development.
    • Includes hardware, software, and process engineering.
    • Software engineering is a subset of system engineering focused on software development.

    Software Engineering

    • Develops the software infrastructure, control, applications, and databases within a computer-based system.

    System Engineers

    • Involved in system specification, architectural design, integration, and deployment.

    Software Development

    • A set of activities with the goal of creating or improving software.
    • Generic activities are common across all software processes.
    • Specification: Defines what the software should do and any limitations or constraints that apply.
    • Development: Involves building and producing the software system.
    • Validation: Ensures the software meets the customer's requirements.
    • Evolution: Adapts and modifies the software to meet changing user needs and demands.
