The Road Map to Software Engineering: A Standards-Based Guide organizes relevant IEEE software and systems standards using two frameworks: the SWEBOK Guide's topical knowledge areas and the widely used IEEE/EIA 12207 standard. This useful guide is endorsed and recommended by the Software and Systems Engineering Standards Committee of the IEEE Computer Society for both practitioners and students.

Provides software engineer professionals with a book whose topical organization assists readers in finding "gaps" in their own knowledge areas and addressing those gaps by consulting the normative literature
Provides students and their instructors with a compendium of "industrial-strength" approaches set in the context of the knowledge a student should seek to attain.
