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)).
