"This book provides a comprehensive material of software engineering techniques and their application in practical software projects. This book takes a broad-perspective to software engineering, offering readers solid coverage of the software process and software process technology, system integration, requirements management, and risk analysis, as well as pattern-based reuse, distributed system engineering, and legacy systems. We have incorporated coverage of new software development paradigms, namely agile methods and component-based software engineering, along with dependability issues--availability, security and critical systems--making the book more in tune with current technology and practice. This book is designed to be used as a complete textbook of software engineering (development, management and evolution), especially with regard to system requirements engineering and critical systems."
