 What is Software?
 Computer programs and associated documentation. Software products may
be developed for a particular customer or may be developed for a general
market.
 More than just a program or code
 Computer Instructions
 Data Structures
 Documentation
 Models
 Program
 typically contains 50-500 lines of code
 developed by one person
 Software System
 Software System is much larger, typically consisting of many programs
working together
 needs a team of software engineers
 need project management and organization
 need a software life cycle
 phased approach to software development
13 October 2021 10 Software Engineering Lec-1

 Software was difficult to maintain
 Software sizes and complexity have grown rapidly
over time

13 October 2021 17 Software Engineering Lec-1

 What is Software Engineering?

 IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Engineers) definition

 “The application of a systematic, disciplined,
quantifiable approach to the development, operation and
maintenance of software; that is, the application of enginee
ring to software”

 Software Engineering is the establishment and use of sound

engineering principles in order to obtain economically software
that is reliable and works efficiently on real machines.

13 October 2021 18 Software Engineering Lec-1

 Why Learn about Software Engineering?

 Software Engineering is one of our most complex things that humans have
ever done
 Suppose some civil engineers think about building a Dam.
 It's an incredible thing. It's an incredible amount of work.
 But if they got halfway through building it, and they saw a huge
crack in the concrete, they'd be able to identify and fix that.
 people would know it's not working.

 The thing about software is that, it's intangible. We can't see it, we can't see
when we've made mistakes;

 And that is why it's so important to learn about the software engineering
and follow it. It gives you the roadmap to success

13 October 2021 19 Software Engineering Lec-1

 What Software Development Looks Like?

 Before we get into a software development

process, let's take a look at a process that
you might be familiar with, like building a
house.

 So, if you were to build a house,

 you'll probably reach out to a builder and
tell about your needs, like, I need two
bedrooms, I need a bigger great room, I need
a room on the basement, and etc.

13 October 2021 20 Software Engineering Lec-1

 What Software Development Looks Like?

 Then, builder is going to go back, and going to create a floor plan. And
 then, he's going to show it to you the floor plan, and you might make so
me adjustment.

13 October 2021 21 Software Engineering Lec-1

 What Software Development Looks Like?

 Once that is done, builder is going to create a detailed map or detailed

 plan about where the foundation is going to be, where the electricity is
 going to be, where the plugs are going to be, where the plumbing is
 going to be, and then, they're going to start building the home

13 October 2021 22 Software Engineering Lec-1

 What Software Development Looks Like?

 And, as they are building the home, they're going to call the inspection
people to come, and inspect the house. For example, let's say the foundation
is done, they're going to get the foundation approved. When the plumbing is
done, they can get the plumbing approved. And so on.

13 October 2021 23 Software Engineering Lec-1

 What Software Development Looks Like?
 And once the house is ready, he's going to call you to say whether,
 you like the house, Is it what you expected? And then, once you approve
it, then you're going to start, staying in that house or living in that house
and, of course, there comes the maintenance of the house.

13 October 2021 24 Software Engineering Lec-1

 What Software Development Looks Like?
 Let's see how software development is similar or different than this. So,
when you're building a software, similar to building a house,
 you're looking at requirements or you're looking at what exactly you
need to build.
 And during that time, you will do analysis of different options or
 you might do a prototype and show it to your customer, and just say, "Is t
his what you're looking for?" But at the end of this phase, you have exact
ly what you're looking to build.

13 October 2021 25 Software Engineering Lec-1

 What Software Development Looks Like?

 Then comes the architects and the software developers. They're going to
design the system, they're going to architect the system, and say, what are
the different components that they need to build? And how they're going
to work together?

13 October 2021 26 Software Engineering Lec-1

 What Software Development Looks Like?

 Once the design is done, they're going to start coding, and start doing
unit testing. So, each of the sub-teams are going to start building their
components and test it

13 October 2021 27 Software Engineering Lec-1

 What Software Development Looks Like?

 Once all the components are ready, they're going to bring all of these
components together, and do integration testing or card verification. And,
they will do functional testing.

13 October 2021 28 Software Engineering Lec-1

 What Software Development Looks Like?

 And when the software is ready from the developer point of view, then
they're going to invite the user, and they will do a testing called, UAT, User
Acceptance Testing, in which a user says, "Yup, this is what I was looking
for." or "No, this is not what I was looking for."

13 October 2021 29 Software Engineering Lec-1

 What Software Development Looks Like?
 And then, once everything is done, then the software goes into production
, which means the user is going to start using, and they might ask for
some changes, or you may have to fix some defects, and so on. So, that's
called the operation and maintenance.

13 October 2021 30 Software Engineering Lec-1

 What Software Development Looks Like?
 So, as you can see, the process is quite similar to building a house
