©Ian Sommerville 2004Software Engineering, 7th edition. Chapter 1 Slide 1 An Introduction to Software Engineering

©Ian Sommerville 2004Software Engineering, 7th edition. Chapter 1 Slide 2 Topics covered l FAQs about software engineering l Professional and ethical responsibility

©Ian Sommerville 2004Software Engineering, 7th edition. Chapter 1 Slide 3 Software engineering l The economies of ALL developed nations are dependent on software. l More and more systems are software controlled l Software engineering is concerned with theories, methods and tools for professional software development. l Expenditure on software represents a significant fraction of GNP in all developed countries.

©Ian Sommerville 2004Software Engineering, 7th edition. Chapter 1 Slide 4 Software costs l Software costs often dominate computer system costs. The costs of software on a PC are often greater than the hardware cost. l Software costs more to maintain than it does to develop. For systems with a long life, maintenance costs may be several times development costs. l Software engineering is concerned with cost- effective software development.

©Ian Sommerville 2004Software Engineering, 7th edition. Chapter 1 Slide 5 What is software? l Computer programs and associated documentation such as requirements, design models and user manuals. l Software products may be developed for a particular customer or may be developed for a general market. l Software products may be Generic - developed to be sold to a range of different customers e.g. PC software such as Excel or Word. Bespoke (custom) - developed for a single customer according to their specification. l New software can be created by developing new programs, configuring generic software systems or reusing existing software.

©Ian Sommerville 2004Software Engineering, 7th edition. Chapter 1 Slide 6 What is software engineering? l Software engineering is an engineering discipline that is concerned with all aspects of software production. l Software engineers should adopt a systematic and organised approach to their work and use appropriate tools and techniques depending on the problem to be solved, the development constraints and the resources available.

©Ian Sommerville 2004Software Engineering, 7th edition. Chapter 1 Slide 7 What is the difference between software engineering and computer science? l Computer science is concerned with theory and fundamentals; software engineering is concerned with the practicalities of developing and delivering useful software. l Computer science theories are still insufficient to act as a complete underpinning for software engineering (unlike e.g. physics and electrical engineering).

©Ian Sommerville 2004Software Engineering, 7th edition. Chapter 1 Slide 8 What is the difference between software engineering and system engineering? l System engineering is concerned with all aspects of computer-based systems development including hardware, software and process engineering. Software engineering is part of this process concerned with developing the software infrastructure, control, applications and databases in the system. l System engineers are involved in system specification, architectural design, integration and deployment.

©Ian Sommerville 2004Software Engineering, 7th edition. Chapter 1 Slide 9 What is a software process? l A set of activities whose goal is the development or evolution of software. l Generic activities in all software processes are: Specification - what the system should do and its development constraints Development - production of the software system Validation - checking that the software is what the customer wants Evolution - changing the software in response to changing demands.

©Ian Sommerville 2004Software Engineering, 7th edition. Chapter 1 Slide 10 What is a software process model? l A simplified representation of a software process, presented from a specific perspective. l Examples of process perspectives are Workflow perspective - sequence of activities; Data-flow perspective - information flow; Role/action perspective - who does what. l Generic process models Waterfall; Iterative development; Component-based software engineering.

©Ian Sommerville 2004Software Engineering, 7th edition. Chapter 1 Slide 11 What are the costs of software engineering? l Roughly 60% of costs are development costs, 40% are testing costs. For custom software, evolution costs often exceed development costs. l Costs vary depending on the type of system being developed and the requirements of system attributes such as performance and system reliability. l Distribution of costs depends on the development model that is used.

©Ian Sommerville 2004Software Engineering, 7th edition. Chapter 1 Slide 12 Activity cost distribution

©Ian Sommerville 2004Software Engineering, 7th edition. Chapter 1 Slide 13 Product development costs

©Ian Sommerville 2004Software Engineering, 7th edition. Chapter 1 Slide 14 What is CASE (Computer-Aided Software Engineering) l Software systems that are intended to provide automated support for software process activities. l CASE systems are often used for method support. l Upper-CASE Tools to support the early process activities of requirements and design; l Lower-CASE Tools to support later activities such as programming, debugging and testing.

©Ian Sommerville 2004Software Engineering, 7th edition. Chapter 1 Slide 15 What are the attributes of good software? l The software should deliver the required functionality and performance to the user and should be maintainable, dependable and acceptable. l Maintainability Software must evolve to meet changing needs; l Dependability Software must be trustworthy; l Efficiency Software should not make wasteful use of system resources; l Acceptability Software must accepted by the users for which it was designed. This means it must be understandable, usable and compatible with other systems.

©Ian Sommerville 2004Software Engineering, 7th edition. Chapter 1 Slide 16 What are the key challenges facing software engineering? l Heterogeneity, delivery and trust. l Heterogeneity Developing techniques for building software that can cope with heterogeneous platforms and execution environments; l Delivery Developing techniques that lead to faster delivery of software; l Trust Developing techniques that demonstrate that software can be trusted by its users.

©Ian Sommerville 2004Software Engineering, 7th edition. Chapter 1 Slide 17 Professional and ethical responsibility l Software engineering involves wider responsibilities than simply the application of technical skills. l Software engineers must behave in an honest and ethically responsible way if they are to be respected as professionals. l Ethical behaviour is more than simply upholding the law.

©Ian Sommerville 2004Software Engineering, 7th edition. Chapter 1 Slide 18 Issues of professional responsibility l Confidentiality Engineers should normally respect the confidentiality of their employers or clients irrespective of whether or not a formal confidentiality agreement has been signed. l Competence Engineers should not misrepresent their level of competence. They should not knowingly accept work which is outwith their competence.

©Ian Sommerville 2004Software Engineering, 7th edition. Chapter 1 Slide 19 Issues of professional responsibility l Intellectual property rights Engineers should be aware of local laws governing the use of intellectual property such as patents, copyright, etc. They should be careful to ensure that the intellectual property of employers and clients is protected. l Computer misuse Software engineers should not use their technical skills to misuse other people’s computers. Computer misuse ranges from relatively trivial (game playing on an employer’s machine, say) to extremely serious (dissemination of viruses).

©Ian Sommerville 2004Software Engineering, 7th edition. Chapter 1 Slide 20 Code of ethics - principles l PUBLIC Software engineers shall act consistently with the public interest. l CLIENT AND EMPLOYER Software engineers shall act in a manner that is in the best interests of their client and employer consistent with the public interest. l PRODUCT Software engineers shall ensure that their products and related modifications meet the highest professional standards possible.

©Ian Sommerville 2004Software Engineering, 7th edition. Chapter 1 Slide 21 Code of ethics - principles l JUDGMENT Software engineers shall maintain integrity and independence in their professional judgment. l MANAGEMENT Software engineering managers and leaders shall subscribe to and promote an ethical approach to the management of software development and maintenance. l PROFESSION Software engineers shall advance the integrity and reputation of the profession consistent with the public interest.

©Ian Sommerville 2004Software Engineering, 7th edition. Chapter 1 Slide 22 Code of ethics - principles l COLLEAGUES Software engineers shall be fair to and supportive of their colleagues. l SELF Software engineers shall participate in lifelong learning regarding the practice of their profession and shall promote an ethical approach to the practice of the profession.

©Ian Sommerville 2004Software Engineering, 7th edition. Chapter 1 Slide 23 Ethical dilemmas l Disagreement in principle with the policies of senior management. l Your employer acts in an unethical way and releases a safety-critical system without finishing the testing of the system. l Participation in the development of military weapons systems or nuclear systems.
