Topic: Software Engineering
Two books, both edited by Richard Thayer & Merlin Dorfman, are now
available from IEEE Computer Society. The books are:
"Software Requirement Engineering, 2nd Edition"
ISBN: 0-8186-7738-4
This book describes current best practices in requirements engineering
with a focus primarily on software systems that may contain other
elements such as hardware of people.
"Software Engineering"
ISBN: 0-8186-7609-4
This book describes current best practices in software engineering. It
begins with an overviews of current issue and in particular the
engineering of large, complex, software-intensive systems. The book also
covers the roles of project management, quality assurance, configuration
management, standards, metrics, and the software process. Emerging
technologies and education are also discussed.
