Software development has matured from heuristic practice to an engineering discipline. Over the years software engineeringdeveloped into a key qualification for mastering complextechnical systems.Nowadays software engineers can benefit from a solid stock of basic research addressing specification, modelling, design and implementation techniques for sequential, concurrent, distributed and real time systems. The underlying software models should support different system views, in particular a data model, a state transition model, an architectural model, and a process model.We survey the scientific foundations of software engineeringand outline future prospects. We conclude with a critical assessmentof applying formal methods from academics to industrial practice.
