Process topics, such as project planning and scheduling, configuration management, etc., are often relegated to a casual support role, rather than treated as fundamental requirements for a rational software development process. We are making the concepts of software process central to our software engineering teaching and assessment. The paper reports on our experiences in developing three integrated Software Engineering units.","PeriodicalId":416862,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 1996 International Conference Software Engineering: Education and Practice","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-01-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116620064","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Software process assessment and improvement 软件过程评估和改进

{"title":"Software process assessment and improvement","authors":"B. Morgan, G. Lowry","doi":"10.1109/SEEP.1996.534042","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/SEEP.1996.534042","url":null,"abstract":"A discussion is given on software process assessment and improvement, by looking at both academic and industrial issues. It is concluded that while industry and universities have a common interest in the education of students, university educators must remain mindful of the tension between meeting current industry needs and preparing students for life long learning. Student projects should satisfy a confluence of sponsor and course objectives; certain limitations inherent in the differing end objectives of industry and tertiary education affect how students approach project work, avoiding reuse and collaboration for academic submissions. Students can be helped to become attuned to personal process assessment and improvement by the example of their lecturers. The habit of self review and improvement is an important facet of professional work. Supportive supervision by the lecturer in charge and the judicious use of guest lecturers can help to enrich student project experience. Over time, as professionally educated software engineers come to make up an ever increasing proportion of developers, it is realistic to anticipate an overall process improvement and client satisfaction with information systems and applications. Process improvement is a corporate and individual professional responsibility and concern. As tertiary educators, we can encourage process improvement by helping managers and developers to open their minds while they are students to habits of reflection and self improvement at an early stage of their education.","PeriodicalId":416862,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 1996 International Conference Software Engineering: Education and Practice","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-01-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129986000","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We illustrate typical pedagogical difficulties which stem from these features, with examples drawn from the programming languages ABC, Ada, C, C++, Eiffel, Haskell, LISP, Modula 3, Pascal, Prolog, Scheme and Turing. We propose seven language design (or selection) principles which may reduce the incidence of such undesirable features: (1) start where the novice is; (2) differentiate semantics with syntax; (3) make the syntax readable and consistent; (4) provide a small and orthogonal set of features; (5) be especially careful with I/O; (6) provide better error diagnosis; and (7) choose a suitable level of abstraction.","PeriodicalId":416862,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 1996 International Conference Software Engineering: Education and Practice","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-01-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130581786","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since many of these relationships are not well understood, accurate estimation of software development time and effort is a difficult problem. Most estimation models in use or proposed in the literature are based on regression techniques. This paper examines the potential of two artificial intelligence approaches, viz. artificial neural networks and case-based reasoning, for creating development effort estimation models. Artificial neural networks can provide accurate estimates when there are complex relationships between variables and where the input data is distorted by high noise levels. Case-based reasoning solves problems by adapting solutions from old problems that are similar to the current problem. This research examines both the performance of backpropagation artificial neural networks in estimating software development effort and the potential of case-based reasoning for development estimation using the same dataset.","PeriodicalId":416862,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 1996 International Conference Software Engineering: Education and Practice","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-01-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129930643","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Usability is an important factor often neglected in software engineering. Improvements both in the education of new software engineers and the effectiveness of practicing engineers hinges on providing a better foundation to support engineering software for use. The conceptual basis of a usage-centered approach to software engineering is outlined, covering the core areas of modeling, methodology, and metrics. The role of essential models and design metrics in helping practicing software and applications developers learn how to design more usable systems is examined. By focusing on usage and the purposes of use, developers can better understand the real work of end users and design simpler systems that more fully support that work.","PeriodicalId":416862,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 1996 International Conference Software Engineering: Education and Practice","volume":"70 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-01-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127346588","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As today's software systems grow in complexity and size, teaching effective communication skills in software engineering courses becomes a critical issue. The paper is an experience report on the use of an issue based model for teaching meeting procedures in a team based software engineering project course (7 teams, 25 students). We observed that, when carefully introduced in the classroom, the use of an issue based model provided significant benefits, even with such limited tool support as a word processor template. More specifically, we observed that students conducted meetings more efficiently, that they maintained a more complete record of the issues under discussion, and that intra team communication was significantly improved.","PeriodicalId":416862,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 1996 International Conference Software Engineering: Education and Practice","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-01-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134585612","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
