            The Impact of Web 2.0 on The Software Development Community

            Software development processes and technologies have evolved and improved over the past couple decades; but they still tend to follow a traditional, top-down, hierarchical management style -- with traditional tools and technologies to support that style. But the recent appearance of Web 2.0 tools has begun to change not only the broad spectrum of interactions in business and society, but also the interactions and work-styles of developers, users, analysts, QA specialists, and other stakeholders in software development. Ed Yourdon's presentation will summarize these tools and trends, and will offer practical guidelines and suggestions for putting them to effective use for greater productivity, quality, and user satisfaction.

            The Role of Software Architecture in System Development and Evolution

            Quality software is software that is fit for its intended purpose. High quality software meets business goals and user needs, which means it has the right features and the right attributes. Building quality software requires using disciplined processes and a carefully designed software architecture. Software architecture forms the backbone for any successful software-intensive system. It is the first design artifact that addresses key quality attributes such as affordability, reliability, security, modifiability, and performance. It provides the most fundamental basis for communicating design decisions and establishing effective work breakdown structures. This talk will highlight the importance of both software architecture and the disciplined use of effective architecture-centric practices.

           Dr. Adam Kolawa, Co-founder and CEO of Parasoft
            Putting the engineering in software engineering: technology infrastructure in process improvement 

            Based on the concepts described in his recently published book, Dr. Kolawa, will explain how to establish an automated technology infrastructure that supports effective software development. This infrastructure defines people roles, necessary technology, and interactions between people and technology. This infrastructure provides product visibility, automates repetitive tasks, tracks project status, and seamlessly collects project data to provide measures necessary for decision making. This infrastructure forms a software production line, thereby putting the engineering into software engineering. Most of all, by putting the engineering into software engineering this infrastructure sustains and facilitates the improvement of human-defined processes.
