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. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Not practical at all.When your interest fall in software engineering, there are *lots* of books on the subject but only a few of them cover the principles in an almost exhaustive way. One of the main errors that authors do is having the claim that all about software engineering can be covered in a single book. And this book is no exception. When you're reading a textbook, this isn't always bad: one of the main purposes of a textbook is introducing the concepts gradually, without much details and in the clearest way possible. ...

Very good coverage of important concepts with amazing knack of not making the subject boring or dull. Very nice suggestions / references / advices for further study. A A very good read for software engineering professionals. |
