Group 6 presentation
- 1. Group 6 Presentation Principle 8: SELF
- 2. • Software engineers shall participate in lifelong learning regarding the practice of their profession and shall promote an ethical approach to the practice of the profession. • In particular, software engineers shall continually endeavor to:
- 3. professional software engineers shall Further their knowledge Since technology advances faster year by year, and so does virtual criminality, the need of well-structured and designed programs is increasing. Computer systems get old and limited by new ones and new devices. In order to create better pieces of software. software engineers should endeavor to improve and maintain their knowledge of developments in the analysis, specification, design, development, maintenance and testing of software and more.
- 4. Improve their ability to create safe, reliable, and useful quality software For software engineers to be useful and good to the society, they should improve their ability to create safe, reliable, and useful quality software at reasonable cost and within a reasonable time.
- 5. Should produce accurate, informative, and well-written documentation; Documentation is an important part . Because it will help clients and team members to get information about how project is going on and evaluate the work , detect errors and useful for future similar projects . So it is important to developers to use accurate, informative and well written documentation. The developers always need to use true and accurate information. Because all the decisions are taking about project based on the information provided by developers. If project is deviating from its target the information help to keep project back on target. So it is important that the accuracy of documentation. So due to these reasons it is important for software developer to improve their ability to produce accurate, informative, and well-written documentation
- 6. • Should produce accurate, informative, and well-written documentation continue. • The developers always need to use true and accurate information. Because all the decisions are taking about project based on the information provided by developers. If project is deviating from its target the information help to keep project back on target. So it is important that the accuracy of documentation. So due to these reasons it is important for software developer to improve their ability to produce accurate, informative, and well-written
- 7. • Improve their understanding of the software and related documents on which they work and of the environment in which they will be used. • Software engineers should improve their knowledge in software, this gives a guarantee to his client or his employer about delivery and high feasibility of the project, increase knowledge in documents on software built is based on. This helps to ensure high chances of project success. And he should improve his knowledge on the environment the software is to deployed .This help in specification of software requirements
- 8. Improve their knowledge of relevant standards and the law governing the software and related documents on which they work. It's more important to know the proper and best standards and laws that are followed in software development .because the product of software development is used in the society, that is ,it's not used by only the developers themselves but also other people in society, this calls in for guidelines that have to ensure usefulness rather harmfulness of the
- 9. • Improve their knowledge of this Code, its interpretation, and its application to their work. • The future of the computing profession depends on both technical and ethical excellence. Not only is it important for ACM computing professionals to adhere to the principles expressed in this Code, each member should encourage and support adherence by other members. Adherence of professionals to a code of ethics is largely a voluntary matter. However, if a member does not follow this code by engaging in gross misconduct, membership in ACM may be terminated.
- 10. Not give unfair treatment to anyone because of any irrelevant prejudices. Usually unfairness and discrimination hurts your intended colleagues. For such actions, proves one to be unprofessional especially for irrelevant prejudices.
- 11. Not influence others to undertake any action that involves a breach of this Code. As professionals , software engineers should not undertake any duty or task, or carry out any other instruction from a client or managers engage in any illegal or unethical conduct involving the practice that may result into any conflict of interest which might influence others to do unethical actions.
- 12. • As a professional software engineer, always avoid association with businesses and organizations that are in conflict with code of ethics and also reorganize that violations of this code of ethics are in consistent with being a professional software engineer.in addition, always report any significant violations of this code of ethic to appropriate authorities.
