| | ASWEC 2004 - Information about Philippe Kruchten |
 | | It is certainly not by lack of trying hard in the last 20 years, but maybe we took the problem by the wrong end. |
 | | He will analyze the similarities and the differences, pin-point the key discriminants that make our software endeavours somewhat different than, for example, those in civil engineering or mechanical engineering: lack of fundamental laws, technology churn, no manufacturing stage, and look at a few recent development that help fill the gaps: iterative development, or model-driven design. |
 | | Philippe Kruchten is a professor of software engineering at the University of British Columbia, in Vancouver, Canada. |
