The Yashwantrao Chavan Maharashtra Open University was established in July 1989 by Act XX- of the Maharashtra State Legislature, named after Yashwantrao Chavan, Maharashtras great political leader and builder of modern Maharashtra The Notes on the BCA Software Engineering Subject of the Yashwantrao Chavan Maharashtra Open University Are as follow Evolution of Software Engineering The Software Industry has evolved through Four Eras: 1] 50s 60s 2] Mid 60s late 70s 3] Mid 70s mid 80s 4] Mid 80s Present Many Industry Observers have defined problems associated with software development as acrisis. The Software Crisis Dates back to 1960s when the primary reasons for these situations were less than acceptable software Engineering practices. In the Early Stages of Software there was a lot of Interest in the Computers, a lot of Code written but no established standards. Then in the early 70s a lot of computer programs started failing and people started losing confidence and thus an industry crisis was declared. Various reasons for this crisis included: 1] Hardware advances outpacing the capability to build software, for this hardware. 2] The ability to build Pace with the Demand. 3] Increasing Dependency on software. 4] Struggle to build reliable and high quality software. 5] Poor design and insufficient resources. To avoid these failures and thus improve the record , what is needed is a better understanding of the process , better estimation techniques for cost - time and quality measures . Process transforms an Input to an Output i.e. a Product. A software process is a set of activities, methods and practices relating to the development and maintenance software.
