A benchmark text on software development and quantitative softwareengineering
"We all trust software. All too frequently, this trust ismisplaced. Larry Bernstein has created and applied quantitativetechniques to develop trustworthy software systems. He and C. M.Yuhas have organized this quantitative experience into a book ofgreat value to make software trustworthy for all of us."
-Barry Boehm
Trustworthy Systems Through Quantitative Software Engineeringproposes a novel, reliability-driven software engineering approach,and discusses human factors in software engineering and how theseaffect team dynamics. This practical approach gives softwareengineering students and professionals a solid foundation inproblem analysis, allowing them to meet customers' changing needsby tailoring their projects to meet specific challenges, andcomplete projects on schedule and within budget.
Specifically, it helps developers identify customer requirements,develop software designs, manage a software development team, andevaluate software products to customer specifications. Studentslearn "magic numbers of software engineering," rules of thumb thatshow how to simplify architecture, design, andimplementation.
Case histories and exercises clearly present successful softwareengineers' experiences and illustrate potential problems, results,and trade-offs. Also featuring an accompanying Web site withadditional and related material, Trustworthy Systems ThroughQuantitative Software Engineering is a hands-on, project-orientedresource for upper-level software and computer science students,engineers, professional developers, managers, and professionalsinvolved in software engineering projects.
An Instructor's Manual presenting detailed solutions to all theproblems in the book is available from the Wiley editorialdepartment.
An Instructor Support FTP site is also available.
