パネル討論:The Future of Software Engineering: a historical perspective

討論リーダ: Bashar Neseibeh教授

概要

In 2008, Software Engineering celebrated its 40th anniversary by recalling the first conference in which the the term "software engineering" was used in Garmisch , Germany, in 1968. In 2000, the international conference on software engineering (ICSE-2000), published a companion volume entitled "The Future of Software Engineering", edited by Professor Anthony Finkelstein. The volume comprised a number of "roadmap" papers that summarised variety of software engineering areas, and discussed open research issues in those areas.

In this panel, a distinguished collection of panellists reflect on the successes and failures of software engineering as it enters middle age. The panellists will asked to to identify open research questions in the field, and will be permitted some time to speculate on forthcoming
trends, opportunities, and dangers facing the discipline.
