Why Software Needs to be Engineered

Abstract


Software engineering practice is losing legitimacy due to the rate of demand for faster and cheaper products. To have an effective software engineering work force, there should be a better bridge to link the industrial and academic practices. This paper involved: sourcing and selecting research and scholarly written materials about software architecture, requirement engineering, software engineering in educational sector, software engineering in software organizations, and software architecture. Literature review centered on these topics is presented, issues that hinders software engineering processes and co-ordination between industries and education are identified. Suggestions regarding how to improve the current situation are made.
