[ May 18, 2001 ] [ May 19, 2001 ] [ May 20, 2001 ]


 
This year SSR adopts a working conference format. To help foster additional exchanges, each technical session will be followed by a moderated discussion where the audience will be both encouraged to comment on the research so far presented as well as more generally on the state of the art/research in the general topic of the session.

Bytes and Bases: Reusable Code
Nature has developed workable methods for building large, complex systems. These systems are robust and highly interactive. Much of their success hinges on reusable DNA software. This talk explores correspondences between natural and synthetic complex systems, and the ways in which they reuse software.

Keynote: Room: Pier 7-8
Chair: Paul Bassett, Netron Corp., Canada

Generic Architectures: A Dynamic Case in Point
Given a set of products that range from a single board, centralized system to multiple board, distributed systems, how does one design a generic software architecture that can cope with this diversity. I address three issues that arise in one particular case:
  1. how to deal with the issue of distribution at the architecture level;
  2. how to deal with the issue of dynamic evolution;
  3. how to deal with the problem of multiple dimensions of organization.

Invited Luncheon Speaker: Ruben Prieto-Diaz, Financial Systems Architects, USA
Reuse in Engineering vs. Reuse in Software: Why Are They Incompatible?
This talk makes the argument that the practice of reuse in established disciplines is implicit and essential for training engineers in the art of the trade-off. In software engineering, in contrast, we do not make trade-offs. We instead build systems to meet precise requirements thus making reuse an extremely difficult practice.
Closing panel: Is Software Engineering Mature Enough to Embrace Reuse Process Room: Pier 7-8
