Abstract
Software engineering (SE) studies software development principles, processes, methods and tools. SE is based not on well-grounded scientific principles but on a compendium of disciplines that are refined and evolved through application into a body of knowledge. Nowadays, key software development issues are primarily concerned not with techniques but with sociological aspects and human nature. More importantly, people play a major role as sources of information, activity performers and product users.
