Description

Software engineering has faced a recognized state of crisis since the first NATO conference in 1968. For decades, the industry has struggled to engineer reliable software as easily or cheaply as originally imagined. This book by Springer addresses the fundamental issue behind cost overruns and expensive failures: the inherent complexity of software. Because software must be precise, problems that seem simple in plain language become much more difficult when translated into formal notation. This text explores why software is fundamentally complex and examines the challenges that prevent reliable engineering. It is an essential read for those studying database management systems and the core principles of computing and internet technologies. By understanding the root causes of software complexity, readers can better navigate the ongoing challenges within the software engineering field.

Key Features

Examines the long-standing crisis in software engineering that began with the 1968 NATO conference.

Analyzes why software remains difficult to engineer reliably and cost-effectively compared to initial expectations.

Explores the fundamental link between software precision and the resulting complexity in technical systems.

Investigates how plain language specifications transform into complex requirements during formal notation.

Provides insight into the causes of common industry problems like cost overruns and expensive failures.
