As software engineering processes change, so do industry standards and specifications. To help you keep current on accepted software engineering process practices, this new directory offers the only complete listing of standards and technical reports available today. This comprehensive tool presents an overview of 300 standards, guides, and technical reports. You learn all the existing standards, what they contain, how they are used, when to apply them, and where to obtain copies. For each standard, the book contains a single-page abstract which details pertinent information about that standard, including: Formal title; Process category (i.e. requirements definition, coding testing, and use); Scope and purpose; Page length; Issuing date; Originating committee or body; Issuing organization; US purchasing source. The book is a valuable resource for software engineering professionals and an important reference for corporate and technical libraries. If you need to produce quality software, specify contract specifications involving software, or expand your working knowledge of what's available, this unique directory provides the most in-depth coverage of standards and specifications applicable in the software engineering process world.
