Horstmann and G. Cornell, Prentice Hall, 2008  Prof. Don Needham (USNA)  Prof. Lori DeLooze (USNA)  Prof. David Coppit (W&M)

3. Software Engineering CSCI 4490 3 Role of Software Engineering (Schach Ch1)  Software Engineering's aim:  produce fault-free SW that meets user's needs  delivered on time/in budget  Easy to modify when user's needs change  Historical Aspects: 1968 NATO Conference  Goal: to solve the “Software Crisis”  Overlooked: bridges not same as software  Question: Is "Software Engineering" the same as “Engineering”? How are bridge building and software development similar, how are they different?

9. Software Engineering CSCI 4490  Cutter Study (2002) : 78% of projects have been involved in disputes ending in litigation:  In 67% of the disputes, functionality of delivered information system did not meet claims of developers  In 45% of the disputes, defects were so severe that system was unusable  In 56% of the cases, not delivered on schedule 9 Recent Studies on the State of Software Engr.  Standish Study (2004 update) reviewed 9,236 projects =>

10. Software Engineering CSCI 4490 10 “Classical” Software Life Cycle Series of Development Steps, from Concept Exploration through Final Retirement, Broken into 6 Phases:  Requirements phase (concept explored, includes rapid prototyping)  Specification/Analysis phase (contract)  Design phase high-level (architectural design => modules) detailed (design of each module)  Implementation phase (coding/testing) Unit testing Integration of sub-systems  Maintenance phase (any changes after acceptance)  Retirement

11. Software Engineering CSCI 4490 11 Where are software development $$$ being spent? Where are the majority of software development dollars being spent? Requirements phase? Specification/Analysis phase? (contract) Design phase? Implementation phase? (coding/testing) Maintenance phase? (any changes after acceptance) Retirement?

13. Software Engineering CSCI 4490 13 *Cost to Detect and Correct a Fault

14. Software Engineering CSCI 4490 14 *Cost to Detect and Correct a Fault ICE: Using 1980 data, if it costs $8400 to fix a fault after delivery, how much would it have cost to fix if the fault had been detected during implementation?

15. Software Engineering CSCI 4490 15 *ICE- Real or Perceived Savings?  Coding method CM new is 10 percent faster than currently used method CM old. Should it be used?  What is the total cost reduction attributed to reducing the coding cost by 10%?  What is the total cost reduction attributed to reducing postdelivery maintenance cost by 10%?
