Software Engineering Institute
Abstract
The SEI Series in Software Engineering is a collection of books that is the result of a collaboration between Carnegie Mellon University’s Software Engineering Institute (SEI) and Addison-Wesley. The collection is a body of work on selected topics in software engineering that provides the most current software engineering information for practitioners and students.
The SEI helps government and industry organizations acquire, develop, operate, and sustain software systems that are innovative, affordable, enduring, and trustworthy. SEI experts research software and cybersecurity problems of considerable complexity, create and test innovative technologies, and transition maturing solutions to widespread use.
Many of the books in the SEI Series in Software Engineering provide the background for SEI courses, certifications, and certificates.
Below is a partial list of the most recently published books in the series. For a full list of the books in the series, visit the Addison-Wesley InformIT site for the series.
