Abstract

The System Factory project seeks to investigate the problems of large-scale software engineering through a combine effort in research, development and education. This report describes the System Factory approach to software engineering education as developed and practiced at USC. It describes the genesis and history of the System Factory project the SF approach to software engineering, our experiences in softwre technology transfer, and concludes with some observations and potentials for large-scale software engineering projects in academic settings. Central to the SF approach is a joint focus on three key determinants of the outcomes of large-scale software development: the products developed, the process through the products are developed, and the production setting where the process of creating products occurs. Accordingly, we outline the software tools we employ, the techniques we developed for engineering software systems throughout their life cycle, and the strategies for managing large software engineering projects we employ.
