Cleanroom Software Engineering by Stacy J. Prowell,Carmen J. Trammell,Richard C. Linger,Jesse H. Poore Pdf

Cleanroom software engineering is a process for developing and certifying high-reliability software. Combining theory-based engineering technologies in project management, incremental development, software specification and design, correctness verification, and statistical quality certification, the Cleanroom process answers today's call for more reliable software and provides methods for more cost-effective software development. Cleanroom originated with Harlan D. Mills, an IBM Fellow and a visionary in software engineering. Written by colleagues of Mills and some of the most experienced developers and practitioners of Cleanroom, Cleanroom Software Engineering provides a roadmap for software management, development, and testing as disciplined engineering practices. This book serves both as an introduction for those new to Cleanroom and as a reference guide for the growing practitioner community. Readers will discover a proven way to raise both quality and productivity in their software-intensive products, while reducing costs. Highlights Explains basic Cleanroom theory Introduces the sequence-based specification method Elaborates the full management, development, and certification process in a Cleanroom Reference Model (CRM) Shows how the Cleanroom process dovetails with the SEI's Capability Maturity Model for Software (CMM) Includes a large case study to illustrate how Cleanroom methods scale up to large projects.

Toward Zero-defect Programming by Allan M. Stavely Pdf

Toward Zero-Defect Programming describes current methods for writing (nearly) bug-free programs. These methods are based on practices developed at IBM and elsewhere under the name Cleanroom Software Engineering. The successful application of these methods in commercial projects over the past fifteen years has produced defect rates that are, at least, an order of magnitude lower than industry averages. Remarkably, this reduction in defects comes at no net cost; on the contrary, it is often accompanied by increased productivity and shorter overall development time. In a concise and well-illustrated presentation, Stavely shows how these methods can be applied in three key areas of software development: 1. specification, 2. verification, and 3. testing.

Software Engineering with B by J. B. Wordsworth Pdf

This is the definitive guide to software engineering with B--the generic name for the software development method invented by Jean-Raymond Abrial, and for the language and CASE tool developed by B-Core (UK) Ltd. The B-method is almost unique among formal software development methods in that it uses a single notation for specification, design and programming. Using tutorial examples, this practical guide can be applied to the whole software engineering life cycle. An accompanying disk allows the reader to experiment with program examples. Key features include: Gives a balanced coverage of the B-Method, the abstract machine notation (AMN) and the B-Toolkit Covers the complete software development process from specification through to production of programs Shows how to write informal descriptions of software components as state machines and how to formalize simple state machines using the abstract machine notation Covers the use of the B-Toolkit for entering, committing, analyzing and animating machines and for generating machines from systems definitions Provides a diskette containing the source text of the examples in the book for use with the B-Toolkit Is supported by supplementary material on the World Wide Web 0201403560B04062001

Foundations of Empirical Software Engineering by Barry Boehm,Hans Dieter Rombach,Marvin V. Zelkowitz Pdf

Although software engineering can trace its beginnings to a NATO conf- ence in 1968, it cannot be said to have become an empirical science until the 1970s with the advent of the work of Prof. Victor Robert Basili of the University of Maryland. In addition to the need to engineer software was the need to understand software. Much like other sciences, such as physics, chemistry, and biology, software engineering needed a discipline of obs- vation, theory formation, experimentation, and feedback. By applying the scientific method to the software engineering domain, Basili developed concepts like the Goal-Question-Metric method, the Quality-Improvement- Paradigm, and the Experience Factory to help bring a sense of order to the ad hoc developments so prevalent in the software engineering field. On the occasion of Basili’s 65th birthday, we present this book c- taining reprints of 20 papers that defined much of his work. We divided the 20 papers into 6 sections, each describing a different facet of his work, and asked several individuals to write an introduction to each section. Instead of describing the scope of this book in this preface, we decided to let one of his papers, the keynote paper he gave at the International C- ference on Software Engineering in 1996 in Berlin, Germany to lead off this book. He, better than we, can best describe his views on what is - perimental software engineering.

SOFTWARE ENGINEERING by S. A. KELKAR Pdf

A decade ago nobody could have imagined the crucial role that software would play in our everyday life. The artificial boundaries between hardware, software, telecommunication, and many other disciplines are getting blurred very rapidly. This book presents the essentials of theory and practice of software engineering in an abstracted form. Presenting the information based on software development life cycle, the text guides the students through all the stages of software production—Requirements, Designing, Construction, Testing and Maintenance. Key Features : Emphasizes on non-coding areas Includes appendices on “need to know” basis Makes the learning easier as organized by software development life cycle This text is well suited for academic courses on Software Engineering or for conducting training programmes for software professionals. This book will be equally useful to the instructors of software engineering as well as busy professionals who wish to grasp the essentials of software engineering without attending a formal instructional course.
