 +//Software Engineering// (SE) is a discipline that studies the development and maintenance of //high quality software// in a systematic, controlled and efficient manner. Specifically, SE aims at establishing and using sound engineering principles and methods in order to obtain economically viable software that is
 reliable and works on real machines((Bauer, F.L., Software Engineering, Information Processing, 71, 1972)). As such, SE is an engineering discipline that applies the principles of computer science and mathematics to achieving cost-effective solutions to software problems in the development, operation, and maintenance of software ((Ford, G. SEI Report on Undergraduate Software Engineering Education, CMU/SEI-90-TR-003, 1990)). Software and software needs have evolved over time.  reliable and works on real machines((Bauer, F.L., Software Engineering, Information Processing, 71, 1972)).

-Today, software engineers face new challenges as today **software permeates any aspect of our life** reaching the mass with sophisticated systems like Global Positioning System (GPS), life-critical like Nuclear Reactor Control systems (NRC), or business-essential like Enterprise Resource systems (ERP). For this reason, today the quality of software and software services, in terms of reliability, safety, and security is of paramount importance.+Today, software engineers face new challenges as today //software permeates any aspect of our life// reaching the mass with sophisticated systems like Global Positioning System (GPS), life-critical like Nuclear Reactor Control systems (NRC), or business-essential like Enterprise Resource systems (ERP).
