An Integrated Approach to Software Engineering

An introduction to software engineering with the emphasis on a case study approach in which a project is developed through the course of the book illustrating the different activities of software development. The sequence of chapters is essentially the same as the sequence of activities performed during a typical software project. Similarly, the author carefully introduces appropriate metrics for controlling and assessing the software process. Intended for students who have had no previous training in software engineering, this book is suitable for a one semester course.
