Features: This textbook integrates the practicality and applicability of software engineering, elaborating on the various stages of the software engineering life cycle. Through the analysis of two current case studies, it explores the conceptualization, analysis, design, and implementation phases in the development process. These case studies can be practiced by a small software development team, with deliverables for each stage provided. The book also includes a complete software development project, allowing students to apply their understanding and experience from each stage. The book focuses on object-oriented software development and organizes its content accordingly. It is not dependent on a specific programming language (necessary code examples are provided in Java), and it uses a subset of the Unified Modeling Language (UML) to model software, explaining the symbols needed for student work. Written for students, it can serve as a textbook for undergraduate computer science majors and graduate students in non-computer fields studying software engineering, as well as a reference for software developers, organizers, and managers.
