About the Book

This book provides an introduction to the essentials of the software development process, that series of activities that facilitate developing better software in less time. It starts with the basic aspects of software process that are the Methods, Tools and the concepts of software life cycle and software process. The second part emphasizes the engineering and management disciplines that are the core of any software engineering process. The third part, which is concerned with the quality aspects of software process, presents the aspects of software process assessment and measurement. The last chapter introduces a software process metamodel, which is the theoretical foundation for any software process. The approach is general, and the explanations are not tied to a particular commercial process. The book includes an ongoing case study example which uses the Unified Process for Education, which is derived from The Rational Unified Process. The book includes a CD-ROM with all the sample deliverables and artifacts created from the case study, as well as chapter-by-chapter sections with further, up-to-date readings on process advancements, and PDF files for all the figures in the book. This book is appropriate for a first course in software process, a software engineering course in which process is a focus, or for any professinal interested in using process to develop better software in less time. *The only textbook that presents the basics of process, rather than using a specific process. *Contains an ongoing Case Study based on the Unified Process for Education, derived from the Rational Unified Process. *Written by the lead architect of the Rational Unified Process in conjunction with professors with in-depth experience in the teaching process. *Contains extensive illustrations, exercises, and suggested readings. *Includes CD-ROM with all deliverables/artifacts developed while creating the case study, PowerPoints of all figures in the book, and full text of selected further readings for each chapter.
