《軟件工程（英文版·第9版）》特點(diǎn)：
　　·涵蓋了對(duì)所有開(kāi)發(fā)過(guò)程都很基礎(chǔ)的重要主題，包括軟件工程理論與實(shí)踐的最新進(jìn)展。
　　·將第8版中的八篇內(nèi)容重構(gòu)為四個(gè)部分，使教師講授軟件工程課程更加容易。
　　·每一章都有30%～40%的更新，增加了敏捷軟件開(kāi)發(fā)和嵌入式系統(tǒng)等新章，補(bǔ)充了模型驅(qū)動(dòng)工程、開(kāi)源開(kāi)發(fā)、測(cè)試驅(qū)動(dòng)開(kāi)發(fā)、可依賴系統(tǒng)體系結(jié)構(gòu)、靜態(tài)分析和模型檢查、cots復(fù)用、服務(wù)作為軟件以及敏捷規(guī)劃等新內(nèi)容。
　　·著重討論了開(kāi)發(fā)可靠的分布式系統(tǒng)的相關(guān)主題以及敏捷方法和軟件復(fù)用。
　　·反映敏捷方法先進(jìn)性的同時(shí)，不忘強(qiáng)調(diào)傳統(tǒng)的計(jì)劃驅(qū)動(dòng)軟件工程的作用，闡述了兩者結(jié)合構(gòu)建優(yōu)秀軟件系統(tǒng)的重要性。
　　·以一個(gè)新的病人記錄系統(tǒng)案例研究貫穿始終，系統(tǒng)、完整地講解軟件工程的各個(gè)方面。
　　·設(shè)計(jì)為“印刷/web”相結(jié)合的方式，核心信息采用印刷版本，教輔材料及先前版本中的一些章節(jié)放在web上，為讀者提供豐富翔實(shí)的信息。

　　lan Sommerville 英國(guó)著名軟件工程專家，曾任教于蘭卡斯特大學(xué)，現(xiàn)為安德魯斯大學(xué)軟件工程學(xué)教授。他在軟件工程的教學(xué)和科研方面有20多年的經(jīng)驗(yàn)，是IEEE CS組織編撰“軟件工程知識(shí)體系”（SWEBOK）的專家委員會(huì)成員之一。他的研究領(lǐng)域包括計(jì)算機(jī)系統(tǒng)工程、需求工程、系統(tǒng)可靠性以及軟件進(jìn)化。
