Material Detail

This is a free, online textbook offered by the Global Text Project at University of Georgia. "This short book was originally written as course notes for a part of a new Software Innovation course at the Department of Computer Science, Aalborg University in Denmark. The students have primarily engineering backgrounds and a primarily technical education. The book was intended to provide counterpoint – that is to provide a scientific, but non-technical account of an emerging systems development topic, written in a non-normative style, where the intention is to further the students’ understanding of their own and other system developers’ practice in software innovation, rather than to provide them with a recipe for it. Thus it is intended as a complementary text for many system development courses, which will use as their main text either a method book (in our department currently Mathiassen et al’s ‘Object-oriented Analysis and Design’), or a software engineering book (such as Pressman or Pfleeger)."
