How to change and improve software development?
Plenty of solutions possible and also needed!
- quality assurance programs
- development and use of components
- application-package based ISD
- better methods, tools, and languages
- ...
One solution:
- Better development methods and tools are required
- noted already when first systems were build in 50’s
- like in other engineering disciplines
- Model-based development instead of pure coding
- Modeling and design tools (CASE) become more important:
- IDC estimated the growth of the worldwide object-oriented design and modeling tool market is 42.6%, reaching $239 million (-98)
- modeling tool market is the fastest growing market of all development tools
