Book Description It is said that business re-engineering is part of our transition to a post-industrial society. The purpose of this book is to present an approach to how to reorganize businesses using the discipline of software engineering as a guiding paradigm. The author's thesis is that software engineering provides the necessary analytical expertise for defining business processes and the tools to transform process descriptions to support systems. The author begins by introducing the concepts and needs for business reengineering and principles and practice of software engineering. He then shows how by concentrating on processes, a business can define the information base required and how it is to be constructed. As a result, any manager or technically-minded person will learn how to implement the reengineering of a business. | ||

This book is great for business transactions and processes. The SF language section is very detailed and sometimes tedious, but this information is important because it contains all the tools needed to model and specify every aspect of business software projects. SF is useful for supplying a common group engineering langauage that can be understood without interpretation problems. Also, it proves very useful for group projects in areas such as system integration. | ||
