Sustainable Software Engineering
As society started to become increasingly conscious of the environmental and social impacts of technology, new disciplines started to emerge to address these concerns. One that should be brought to our attention is Sustainable Software Engineering (SSE), which has gained significant prominence in recent years.
Traditional software engineering primarily centers on designing, developing, and maintaining software systems with a core emphasis on functionality and performance. Its primary objective is to deliver digital products that meet user requirements reliably, efficiently, and cost-effectively.
To illustrate the traditional approach to software development, consider the following diagram. This chart provides a visual representation of the conventional development cycle and highlights the key stages, from requirement analysis and design through to implementation, testing, and evolution:
