  An introduction to software engineering for students in undergraduate programs in computer science, computer studies, information technology, and related fields at the college or university level. This edition (first was in 1987) retains a non-mathematical approach and adds new chapters on object-oriented design, parallel programming, requirements specification and formal specification. This is the second edition of a very successful book and has been revised extensively throughout to bring it up to date. The new edition retains the clear, simple style in which very little background is assumed and the chapters are independently organized. Suitable for use in government and industrial training programs.

  This comprehensive revision continues to build upon the distinctive programming approach that differentiates this book from other software engineering texts in the market. The rationale behind this bottom-up approach, one that is much more pragmatic than other software engineering texts, is that students need to understand and be able to apply programming principles before they can contemplate the concepts involved in software engineering. Douglas Bell has updated its content to reflect current trends and new advancements in the field as well as adding new pedagogical features, such as an initial overview of the software process. This will show students how the various topics of software engineering tie together. Includes examples and discussions of Java:UML.
