Assignment title: Information


This is a Principles of Software Engineering Assignment. The Assignment is based on Laws. There are four laws given in the assignment description. We have to implement those laws on the given theory.The purpose of this assignment is to enable students to demonstrate their ability to interpret a set of laws that are part of the principles of software engineering, to evaluate principles of software engineering aspects within an industry in relation to the various elements covered, to apply them to cases drawn from technical and academic literature and to communicate the key issues through a written academic report. Individual Assignment Weighting and Due Date: Refer to Course Description on Moodle Description of assignment: The Laws of Software Engineering. Consider the following four laws given in the prescribed text: Boehm Requirement deficiencies are the prime source of project failures. (L1) Parnas Only what is hidden can be changed without risk. (L8) Corbató Productivity and reliability depend on the length of a program's text, independent of language level used. (L12) Conway A system reflects the organizational structure that built it. Describe each law in your own words. Define the terms in each law and explain the law clearly and thoroughly. Illustrate your explanation with practical examples – with at least one example for each law from software engineering. The following diagram is from the text. Clearly and thoroughly explain the relationship between observation, law and theory. Illustrate your answer with examples – with at least one from software engineering.
