A s the past decades have seen the automation of all the tasks in all the domains and computing systems have become more complex and are being implanted in the modern society, there is a persistent demand for developing efficient methodologies to software development and maintenance. There is a requirement of great extents of effort, time and money to plan and develop any viable software. It also involves people and their organization. Even the very minor pieces of software require numerous activities to be accomplished and can be considered as a project. Owing to growing competition, today's commercial circumstances have become very dynamic. Companies need to act very fast to varying needs of the market. Important developments have also taken place in the way software is proposed and developed. Thus, software engineering which deals with all these areas has become an individualized study from researchers. Software crisis symbolizes the recurring system development obscurities where software problems cause the system tasks to be delayed, expensive, and/or not receptive to the user’s needs and requests. Software Engineering is an engineering discipline which is concerned with all phases of software production from the early stages of system requirements through to maintaining the system after is has gone into use. Software can be developed to meet the various stages of reliability, security and response time. Productivity of software development varies greatly based on the level of performance required by the customer.
The Purpose of this report is to examine and show the impact that software engineers make on today’s current society. This report will cover The History and Beginning of software Engineers and what they do, to create what we never take the time to appreciate. While it seems like it’s an easy thing to do creating applications and testing them for public use, it can be very stressful and difficult and extremely time consuming. being called a software engineer is a controversial topic many people say that using the term engineer is being used as they are only writing code, such as that a construction w...
