Are you a software developer? Are you interested in how build systems work? You’re reading this book; so there’s a good chance you answered “Yes” to both questions. On the other hand, many software developers aren’t interested in how their program is compiled. Most people just want to press a button and...

CERT® Resilience Management Model (CERT-RMM) is an innovative and transformative way to manage operational resilience in complex, risk-evolving environments. CERT-RMM distills years of research into best practices for managing the security and survivability of people, information, technology, and facilities. It...

The story of software engineering has been the story of increasing the level of abstraction at which we as programmers work, from logic encoded in hardware to toggle switches representing binary digits, through machine code, assembly language, low-level languages, and high-level languages both procedural and functional. More recently,...

This book is intended to survey the most important computer algorithms in use today, and to teach fundamental techniques to the growing number of people in need of knowing them. It is intended for use as a textbook for a second course in computer science, after students have acquired basic programming skills and familiarity with computer...

We were early adopters of Extreme Programming (XP), testing on XP teams that weren’t at all sure where testers or their brand of testing fit in. At the time, there wasn’t much in the agile (which wasn’t called agile yet) literature about acceptance testing, or how professional testers might contribute. We learned not...

The first edition of this textbook on software engineering was published more than twenty years ago. That edition was wJitten using a dumb terminal attached to an early minicomputer (a PDP-II) that probably cost about $50,000. I wrote this edition on a wireless laptop that cost less than $2,000 and is many times more powerful than...

The authors of this book are both practicing software architects who have worked in this role, together and separately, on information system development projects for quite a few years. During that time, we have seen a significant increase in the visibility of software architects and in the importance with which our role has been...

This book contains a detailed analysis of the International Standard for the C language,-3.1 excluding the library from a number of perspectives. The organization of the material is unusual in that it is based on the actual text of the published C Standard. The unit of discussion is the individual sentences from the C Standard (2022 of...

Computer users spend a lot of time doing simple, mechanical data manipulation - changing the format of data, checking its validity, finding items with some property, adding up numbers, printing reports, and the like. All of these jobs ought to be mechanized, but it's a real nuisance to have to write a specialpurpose program in a...

Computer Science: An Overview uses broad coverage and clear exposition to present a complete picture of the dynamic computer...

Java: An Introduction to Problem Solving and Programming, 6e, is ideal for introductory Computer Science courses using Java, and other introductory programming courses in departments of Computer Science, Computer Engineering, CIS, MIS, IT, and Business. Students are introduced to object-oriented programming and important...
