Description of assignment:

The Laws of Software Engineering.

Consider the following four laws given in the prescribed text:
Boehm

Requirement deficiencies are the prime source of project failures. (L1)

Parnas
Only what is hidden can be changed without risk. (L8)
Corbató
Productivity and reliability depend on the length of a program's text, independent of language level used. (L12)

Conway
A system reflects the organizational structure that built it. (LI6)

• Describe each law in your own words. Define the terms in each law and explain the law clearly and thoroughly. Illustrate your explanation with practical examples - with at least one example for each law from software engineering.

• The following diagram is from the text. Clearly and thoroughly explain the relationship between observation, law and theory. Illustrate your answer with examples - with at least one from software engineering.
