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.
