Software System Engineering Process

Microsoft

Microsoft is the world’s largest software development company.it was founded by Bill Gates and his friend Paul in 1975 from the improvement of BASIC. This programming language was then used in personal computers (Kozlovska & Vinnik, 2017).

Microsoft started with the aim of developing applications and systems to be used in personal computers. Microsoft has a strong foundation in software development for individual computers. The culture of Microsoft has enabled it to remain at the top of its game, considering its bargaining power in technological advancement.

Categories of software developed

The Microsoft designs computer software that is categorized into the application, system, programming, and driver software. In the bigger picture, programming and driver software are considered system software.

They are both used in running systems software to enhance the performance of the operating system. Application software enables the user to perform specific tasks. This application software developed by Microsoft includes; Microsoft office, which combines all office used applications in one, Microsoft suite, among others.

Systems software is essential software; they create a computer connection between hardware and software and give the implementation, programming, and driver software an environment to operate. MS-DOS was the first system software developed by Microsoft from BASIC programming language improvement (Kurbanova, Korableva & Kalimullina, 2018).

Process improvement goals.

During software development, Microsoft sets up a team of developers to handle the development requirements. Teamwork improves efficiency, effectiveness, quality, and capability of the development of unique and up-to-date software. Secondly, Motivation of staff is the second form of the improvement strategy.

Staff motivation ensures all work done is highly applicated and recognized, making the staff work more and provide the best software. The last improvement is training and capacity building (mentoring) for the staff (Someh & Wixom, 2017).

These ensure the company has retained skillsets at every stage of their development. All employees play a role in the development and ensure that all steps are well understood and discussed before progress to the next scene.
