Understanding and improving technology transfer in software engineering
Software engineering has come a long way since 1968, when the term was first introduced at a NATO conference. Today, software pervades almost all aspects of our lives, from controlling our appliances to transporting us around the world. However, the transfer of new software engineering techniques and tools to common practice has had much more limited success; sometimes new ideas take hold immed...
متن کاملTechnology Transfer: Software Engineering and Engineering Design
Software engineering has made significant contributions to “engineering-in-the-large”. The nature of the software process has been researched, and computer based tools and environments have been built to support this process. Other more established engineering disciplines, such as instrument design, have developed professional practices, mature mathematical frameworks for system modelling and a...
متن کاملSoftware Engineering as Technology Transfer
We propose, as a challenge to the software engineering research community, a new view of software engineering as technology transition. In this view, the role of software engineering is to take the initial results of theorists and harden these results to the point where they are ready to be used in fielded, commercial systems. Current techniques for software verification, while adequate for ser...
متن کاملCulture Conflicts in Software Engineering Technology Transfer
Although the need to transition new technology to improve the process of developing quality software products is well understood, the computer software industry has done a poor job of carrying out that need. All too often new software technology is touted as the next "silver bullet" to be adopted, only to fail and disappear within a very short period. New technologies are often adopted without ...
متن کاملUnderstanding Software Systems Using Reverse Engineering Technology
Software engineering research has focused primarily on software construction, neglecting software maintenance and evolution. Observed is a shift in research from synthesis to analysis. The process of reverse engineering is introduced as an aid in program understanding. This process is concerned with the analysis of existing software systems to make them more understandable for maintenance, re-e...
