Abstract
The Software Engineering institute (SEI) is a federally funded research and development center sponsored by the Department of Defense (DoD). It was chartered by the Undersecretary of Defense for Research and Engineering on June 15, 1984. The SEI was established and is operated by Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) under contract F19628-85-C-0003, which was competitively awarded on December 28, 1984, by the Air Force Electronic System Division. The mission of the SEI is to provide the means to bring the ablest minds and the most effective technology to bear on the rapid improvement of the quality of operational software in mission-critical computer systems; to accelerate the reduction to practice of modern software engineering techniques and methods; to promulgate the use of modern techniques and methods throughout the mission- critical systems community; and to establish standards of excellence for the practice of software engineering. This report provides a summary of the programs and projects, staff, facilities, and service accomplishments of the Software Engineering Institute during 1987.
