INTRODUCTION TO SOFTWARE ENGINEERING

A software that is least subjected to changes hence this is the simplest of all.

Give all the factors under operational characteristics

A ____ is considered to be collection of executable programming code, associated libraries and documentations.

If the process were not based on science, it would be easier to re-create new software than to scale an existing one.

Lehman has given eight laws for E-Type software evolution. What are those?

give the three aspects under programming paradigm

In this law, the size of implementing the changes grows according to the lifestyle changes of the business.

An E-type software system must continue to adapt to the real world changes, else it becomes progressively less useful.

These are systems that are commissioned by a particular  customer.

The average effective global activity rate in an evolving E-type system is invariant over the lifetime of the product.

Who defined software engineering as the development of software that works on real machines with the use of engineering?

This includes the initial development of software, its maintenance and updates, till desired product is developed.

give the three aspects under software design paradigm

The knowledge about how it was developed, why was it developed in a particular manner etc., must be retained at any cost

In this law, systems constitute multi-loop, multi-level feedback systems

give the three aspects under software development paradigm

The application of a systematic approach to the development, operation, and maintenance of software.

Give all the factors under transitional characteristics

The ___ of   the software remains high if proper process is not adapted.

In this law, system declines in quality unless rigorously maintained and adapted to a changing operational environment.

Lehman has given laws for software evolution. He divided the software into three different categories. What are those?

Stand alone systems that are produced by a development organization and sold on the open market to any customer.

In this law, processes are self-regulating with the distribution of product and process measures close to normal.

This paradigm is where all the engineering concepts pertaining to the development of software are applied.

What are three characteristics in measuring a good software?

what are the needs in software engineering?

This  software works closely as the requirement of real-world environment.

Always growing and adapting nature of the software   hugely depends upon the environment in which the user works.

What does IEEE stand for?

Software, when made for a specific requirement is called ____ .

A ____ is an executable code, which serves some computational purpose.

The process of developing a software product using software engineering principles and methods is ___.

This paradigm includes design, maintenance, and programming.

As an E-type software system evolves, its complexity tends to increase unless work is done to maintain or reduce it.

____ is all about developing products, using well- defined, scientific principles and methods.

This software has a high degree of evolution as there are various changes in the real world situations.

A software which works strictly according to defined specifications and solutions.

As the size of the software becomes large, engineering has to step   to give it a scientific process.

___ is associated with development of software product using well-defined scientific principles, methods and procedures.

This paradigm is related closely to programming aspect of software development.

What are the two kinds of software?

Better process of software development provides   better and quality software product.

Give all the factors under maintenance characteristics

Software, when made for a specific requirement is called ____ .

This is a software with a collection of procedures. The specifications can be described but the solution is not instant.
