Product-family engineering is a relatively new approach to the creation of new products. It focuses on the process of engineering new products in such a way that it is possible to reuse product components and apply variability with decreased costs and time. Product-family engineering is all about reusing components and structures as much as ...
In April 1975, DEC began a hardware project, code-named Star, to design a 32-bit virtual address extension to its PDP-11.In June 1975, Cutler, together with Dick Hustvedt and Peter Lipman, were appointed the technical project leaders for the software project, code-named Starlet, to develop a totally new operating system for the Star family of processors.
Community Development: project that creates and provides tools, processes, and advice to help open-source software projects improve their own community health; Cordova: mobile development framework; CouchDB: Document-oriented database; Apache Creadur Committee Rat: improves accuracy and efficiency when reviewing and auditing releases.
[1] [2] The trend towards agile methods in software engineering is noticeable, [3] however the need for improved studies on the subject is also paramount. [4] [5] Also note that some of the methods listed might be newer or older or still in use or out-dated, and the research on software design methods is not new and on-going. [6] [7] [8] [9]
On the one hand, the consideration of social factors in software engineering activities, processes and CASE tools is deemed to be useful to improve the quality of both development process and produced software. Examples include the role of situational awareness and multi-cultural factors in collaborative software development.
Factor 1: First there is the acceptance of DSDM by senior management and other employees. This ensures that the different actors of the project are motivated from the start and remain involved throughout the project. Factor 2: Directly derived from factor 1: The commitment of the management to ensure end-user involvement.
Software engineering is the application of a systematic, disciplined, quantifiable approach to the design, development, operation, and maintenance of software, and the study of these approaches; that is, the application of engineering to software.
After a low-key launch, Uplink was a critical and commercial success for Introversion. A visit to E3 2002 saw the team "rinse £10k in a week on speedboats and fast cars", but regret soon set in as they watched their income steadily decline, since "in the games industry, you make 75% of your total revenue for the product in the first 6 months".
