A Manager's Guide to Software Engineering

For over a decade, Roger Pressman's books on software engineering have been setting standards for the technical community. In his latest book, he addresses the needs and concerns shared by today's IS managers. A Manager's Guide to Software Engineering uses a unique question-and-answer format coupled with pragmatic advice to help readers understand answers to four important project management questions: What is software engineering? How do we manage the changes that are required to make it work? How can we use it to manage projects more effectively? What do we have to know about its technological components to manage it effectively? In answering these questions, Pressman goes into great detail explaining how software engineering methods, metrics, and CASE can be implemented to properly manage the software development process.

The sole book on software strategy designed for managers with little technical background, this highly praised guide won the Maeventec Award from Computer Book Review for "exemplary style, content, and format." In its new softcover version it will attract an even wider readership-especially since increasing numbers of nontechnical mangers are now taking part on software development teams. Pressman explains the complexities of software engineering to a managerial audience by highlighting its impact on the corporation. In a relaxed question-and-answer format, he helps readers frame and answer four key questions: What is software engineering and why is it important to us? How do we manage the changes it requires? How can it help us manage project more effective?

For almost three decades, Roger Pressman's Software Engineering: A Practitioner's Approach has been the world's leading textbook in software engineering. The new seventh edition represents a major restructuring and update of previous editions, solidifying the book's position as the most comprehensive guide to this important subject.The seventh edition of Software Engineering: A Practitioner's Approach has been designed to consolidate and restructure the content introduced over the past two editions of the book. The chapter structure will return to a more linear presentation of software engineering topics with a direct emphasis on the major activities that are part of a generic software process. Content will focus on widely used software engineering methods and will de-emphasize or completely eliminate discussion of secondary methods, tools and techniques. The intent is to provide a more targeted, prescriptive, and focused approach, while attempting to maintain SEPA's reputation as a comprehensive guide to software engineering.The book will be organized in five (5) parts-Process, Modeling, Quality Management, Project Management, and Advanced Topics.

For over 20 years, Software Engineering: A Practitioner's Approach has been the best selling guide to software engineering for students and industry professionals alike. 
The sixth edition continues to lead the way in software engineering. A new Part 4 on Web Engineering presents a complete engineering approach for the analysis, design, and testing of Web Applications, increasingly important for today's students. Additionally, the UML coverage has been enhanced and signficantly increased in this new edition. 
The pedagogy has also been improved in the new edition to include sidebars. They provide information on relevant softare tools, specific work flow for specific kinds of projects, and additional information on various topics. Additionally, Pressman provides a running case study called "Safe Home" throughout the book, which provides the application of software engineering to an industry project. 
 New additions to the book also include chapters on the Agile Process Models, Requirements Engineering, and Design Engineering. The book has been completely updated and contains hundreds of new references to software tools that address all important topics in the book. 
The ancillary material for the book includes an expansion of the case study, which illustrates it with UML diagrams. The On-Line Learning Center includes resources for both instructors and students such as checklists, 700 categorized web references, Powerpoints, a test bank, and a software engineering library-containing over 500 software engineering papers. Key Handles: • Agile Process Methods covered early in chapter 4 • New Part on Web Applications—5 new chapters • New modular organization will allow faculty to use the book in different course formats. o Design course o Survey course o Management course o Web engineering course • Object oriented design has been increased within the market • New pedagogy now includes side bar info on software tools, work flow specific and special Probes:
