Rapid Integration of Software Engineering Techniques


Book Description

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed postproceedings of the First International Workshop on Rapid Integration of Software Engineering Techniques, RISE 2004, held in Luxembourg-Kirchberg, Luxembourg in November 2004. The 12 revised full papers presented together with an invited paper went through two rounds of reviewing and improvement and were selected from 28 initial submissions. Among the topics addressed are software architecture, software process, component-driven design, dynamic service verification, model checking, model-based testing, exception handling, metamodeling, UML, state machines, and model-centric development.

Integrating CMMI and Agile Development


Book Description

Many organizations that have improved process maturity through Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI®) now also want greater agility. Conversely, many organizations that are succeeding with Agile methods now want the benefits of more mature processes. The solution is to integrate CMMI and Agile. Integrating CMMI® and Agile Development offers broad guidance for melding these process improvement methodologies. It presents six detailed case studies, along with essential real-world lessons, big-picture insights, and mistakes to avoid. Drawing on decades of process improvement experience, author Paul McMahon explains how combining an Agile approach with the CMMI process improvement framework is the fastest, most effective way to achieve your business objectives. He offers practical, proven techniques for CMMI and Agile integration, including new ways to extend Agile into system engineering and project management and to optimize performance by focusing on your organization’s unique, culture-related weaknesses.




Emerging Methods, Technologies, and Process Management in Software Engineering


Book Description

A high-level introduction to new technologies andmethods in the field of software engineering Recent years have witnessed rapid evolution of software engineering methodologies, and until now, there has been no single-source introduction to emerging technologies in the field. Written by a panel of experts and divided into four clear parts, Emerging Methods, Technologies, and Process Management in SoftwareEngineering covers: Software Architectures – Evolution of software composition mechanisms; compositionality in software product lines; and teaching design patterns Emerging Methods – The impact of agent-oriented software engineering in service-oriented computing; testing object-oriented software; the UML and formal methods; and modern Web application development Technologies for Software Evolution – Migrating to Web services and software evolution analysis and visualization Process Management – Empirical experimentation in software engineering and foundations of agile methods Emerging Methods, Technologies, and Process Management in Software Engineering is a one-stop resource for software engineering practitioners and professionals, and also serves as an ideal textbook for undergraduate and graduate students alike.




Introduction to Software Engineering


Book Description

Practical Guidance on the Efficient Development of High-Quality Software Introduction to Software Engineering, Second Edition equips students with the fundamentals to prepare them for satisfying careers as software engineers regardless of future changes in the field, even if the changes are unpredictable or disruptive in nature. Retaining the same organization as its predecessor, this second edition adds considerable material on open source and agile development models. The text helps students understand software development techniques and processes at a reasonably sophisticated level. Students acquire practical experience through team software projects. Throughout much of the book, a relatively large project is used to teach about the requirements, design, and coding of software. In addition, a continuing case study of an agile software development project offers a complete picture of how a successful agile project can work. The book covers each major phase of the software development life cycle, from developing software requirements to software maintenance. It also discusses project management and explains how to read software engineering literature. Three appendices describe software patents, command-line arguments, and flowcharts.
