Benefícios da modularização na obtenção de software de qualidade

Abstract

The use of computerized systems becomes more common in several fields, including financial, educational, entertainment and others. The good operation of these systems can be considered a decisive factor for the success of business and can be critical for the human security, for instance, in systems used in airplanes. The software quality must not be treated as a secondary issue. So, to assure good quality of the software products the designers must use recognized techniques in their development. The main aim of this work is to present the results of a study done about modular programming, their concepts and principles. The modular programming and its principles help to reach good quality products, with high maintainability and a good level of reusability, and, as consequence, with lowest costs.
