This third volume examines the basic principles and techniques of overall software development, from domains via requirements to software designs, advocating a novel approach to software engineering based on the adage "Before requirements can be formulated one must understand the application domain."

Three-volume set brings reader from basic principles to very advanced principles and techniques Suitable for undergraduate and graduate students in software engineering Emphasis on presenting application domains both informally and formally Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
