Q:How do you define the term 'Software Engineering'? i used dictionary.com too and i found that the dictionary could have a better description of n : a person who designs and writes and tests computer programs [syn: programmer, computer programmer]. "1 entry found for Software Engineering. Software Engineering, (SE) A systematic approach to the analysis, design, implementation and maintenance of software. It often involves the use of CASE tools. There are various models of the software life-cycle, and many methodologies for the different phases.(1994-11-03) Source: The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing, © 1993-2001 Denis Howe " & there's always this..

Software engineering is the technological and managerial discipline concerned with systematic production and maintenance of software products that are developed and modified on time and within cost estimates (Fairley, R.
