Synopsis

This book examines the historical development of software factories within the Japanese Toshiba Corporation throughout the 1970s and 1980s. The author explores how Toshiba's software factory strategy, technology, and organizational structure evolved in response to demands for increased productivity, quality, and cost control. The book presents a detailed analysis of the SWE system, a set of tools and procedures that were developed to support the software factory environment, including design, programming, testing, quality assurance, project management, installation, and maintenance. The author also discusses the management systems used to promote reusability, process quality, and personnel development within the factory. By exploring the evolution of Toshiba's software factory, the book sheds light on the broader history of software engineering, the challenges of managing large-scale software development projects, and the potential benefits of adopting a factory approach to software production.
