Overview of Software Engineering Concepts

Software engineering is the application of engineering principles to software development to obtain higher quality and reliability at lower cost. It involves systematic development, operation, maintenance and retirement of software. Some key challenges include software being expensive, late, unreliable, and difficult to change. Software engineering aims to reduce time and costs while improving quality. It uses software metrics to measure characteristics like size, complexity and reliability. Common types of software include systems software, real-time systems, business software, engineering software, embedded software, web-based software, AI software and safety critical systems. Emerging areas include e-commerce, mobile apps, middleware, databases, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and video games.

IEEE defines software as collection of computer programs,


procedures, rules, and associated documentation and data.
• Software Engineering is application of science and mathematics by
which the capabilities of the computer equipment are made useful
to man via computer programs, procedures, and associated
documentation.

• Software engineering is also defined as the systematic approach to


the development, operation, maintenance, and retirement of
software.
 Software is expensive
 Late and unreliable
 Problem of change and rework
 The problem of scale
 Cost, schedule, and quality
 The problem of consistency
 Time  Less
 Quality  High
 Cost  Minimum
 Software metrics are quantifiable measures that could
be used to measure different characteristics of a
software system or the software development process.
 A number of metrics have been proposed to quantify
things like the size, complexity and reliability of a
software product.
 System Software : Operating System, Compilers, Editors, Device
Drivers

 Real-Time Systems and Software:


Soft Real-Time system : Cash dispenser for a bank.

and accessed electronically from a computer system.
Software that acts as a bridge between an operating system or
database and applications, especially on a network.
It is practice of using a network of remote servers hosted on the
Internet to store, manage, and process data, rather than a local
server or a personal computer.

Cloud computing is use of various services, such as software


development platforms, servers, storage and software, over the
internet, often referred to as the "cloud."
Artificial Intelligence is a way of making a computer, a computer-
controlled robot, or a software think intelligently, in the similar
manner the intelligent humans think.
A video game is an electronic game that involves interaction with
a user interface to generate visual feedback on a two- or three-
dimensional video display device such as a TV screen, virtual
reality headset or computer monitor.
