The software engineering process : insight into building machines of the mind : an honors thesis (HONRS 499)

My intention is for the reader to get an insight into the software development process. It is written for the non-technical reader. The thesis includes an explanation of the program, an explanation of software engineering and some of the practices as well as how they relate to the engineering of the program. A description of the design process, the programming language used and why we chose that language will be given. Next there will be a short description of the team members and what their roles were. Finally a post-mortem of the project will be given including certain items that went right as well as what went wrong. I wish to instill in others a greater sense of what happens on a small-scale software project. Perhaps this will give them a greater appreciation each time they start up their computers and use their favorite software program. Lots of work goes into creating even the smallest program, and I take less for granted being involved first-hand in the creation of such a program, and I hope I can pass that along.Honors CollegeThesis (B.?.
