Toward Gamification to Software Engineering and Contribution of Software Engineer
ICMSS 2020: Proceedings of the 2020 4th International Conference on Management Engineering, Software Engineering and Service SciencesWe wish to change developers' behaviors to increase software engineering efficiency and the previous research shows that gamification method can change user's behaviors. Gamification has become a popular topic in many areas including software ...
The systems engineer and the software crisis
This report examines the software crisis from a systems engineer's viewpoint. It analyses the key areas of requirements specification, verification and validation and software re-use. It assesses some of the solutions to the crisis proposed by the ...
What makes a good software engineer?
TRI-Ada '89: Proceedings of the conference on Tri-Ada '89: Ada technology in context: application, development, and deploymentSince the term “software engineering” was coined some 20+ years ago, [4] a number of definitions for both the practice and the practitioner, a “software engineer,” have been proposed. The definition from a recent report on undergraduate software ...
