Richard F. Schmidt has over 30 years of experience in systems and S/W engineering in the aerospace community. While serving the Air Force Systems Command, he chaired a Joint Service Working Group which produced Revision A of DoD-STD- 2167, Defense Systems S/W Development, and DOD-STD-2168, Defense Systems S/W Quality Program. Richard continued his involvement in standards by chairing the IEEE Working Group on Systems Engineering Management, responsible for the publication of IEEE 1220, The Application and Management of the Systems Engineering Process. Supported the Navy’s RDA Chief Systems Engineer (CHENG) Office for 9 years as an independent consultant for Systems and Software Engineering policy and practices, producing the Naval System-of-Systems (SoS) Systems Engineering Guidebook in 2005. Richard is currently the Director of Marketing for Vitech Corporation, the providers of CORE. Richard has also worked for CASE Tool vendors including Rational S/W, and Ascent Logic Corporation.

De la contraportada

Studies show that more than half of all software projects either fail outright or run woefully over budget and schedule. This is partially due to education that focuses on programming and modular-level design, but primarily attributed to a lack of understanding surrounding software archtecture design. Without a complete design concept, which addresses the hardware and peripherals on which software programs will execute, coding can be inefficient, and result in an unstable design foundation for the software product life cycle.

Software Engineering: Architecture-Driven Software Development takes an interdisciplinary approach to software development. Designed to align with the IEEE Computer Society's Software Engineering body of Knowledge (SWEBOK), the book focuses on integrating a variety of software development methods and archtectural design practices that are essential for developing effective and efficient software products. Standards expert Richard Schmidt adapts traditional systems engineering practices to the engineering of software products. Whether you're a software developer, a systems engineer, or project manager, this book provides key insights into how these two skill sets can support and complement each other.
