For almost three decades Roger Pressman's Software Engineering: A Practitioner's Approach has been the world'sleading textbook in software engineering. The new edition represents a major restructuring and update of previouseditions, solidifying the book's position as the most comprehensive guide to this important subject. The chapterstructure will return to a more linear presentation of software engineering topics with a direct emphasis on the majoractivities that are part of a generic software process. Content will focus on widely used software engineering methodsand will de-emphasize or completely eliminate discussion of secondary methods tools and techniques. The intent is toprovide a more targeted prescriptive and focused approach while attempting to maintain SEPA's reputation as acomprehensive guide to software engineering. The 39 chapters of this edition are organized into five parts – Process,Modeling, Quality Management, Managing Software Projects, and Advanced Topics.
