| 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)).
