Abstract

Award-winning author Steve McConnell offers candid reflections upon the state of software development today and a critical look at the work needed to turn software engineering into a true profession. This talk highlights key trends and calls for a more rigorous and standards-based profession. The ideas presented in this talk will help software developers step back from the day-to-day rush of their work and think about where their careers and the industry are heading. Bio Steve McConnel1 is Chief Software Engineer at Construx Software. In 1998, readers of Software Development named Steve one of the three most influential people in the software industry, along with Bill Gates and Linus Torvalds. His first two books (Code Complete and Rapid Development) won Software Development magazine's Jolt Excellence award for outstanding software development books of their respective years. McConnel1 has also written numerous technical articles and volunteers as Editor in Chief of IEEE Software magazine. His most recent book is After the Gold Rush: Creating a True Profession of Software Engineering. He can be reached at stevemcc@construx.com.

淘金热之后:建立真正的软件工程专业

获奖作家Steve McConnell对当今软件开发的现状进行了坦诚的反思，并对将软件工程转变为一种真正的职业所需的工作进行了批判性的审视。这次演讲强调了主要趋势，并呼吁建立一个更加严格和基于标准的职业。本演讲中提出的观点将帮助软件开发人员从日常工作的匆忙中抽身出来，思考他们的职业和行业的发展方向。Steve mcconnell是construcx Software的首席软件工程师。1998年，《软件开发》杂志的读者将史蒂夫评为软件行业最有影响力的三位人物之一，另外两位是比尔·盖茨和李纳斯·托瓦兹。他的前两本书(代码完整和快速开发)获得了软件开发杂志的Jolt卓越奖，以表彰他们各自年份的杰出软件开发书籍。McConnel1还撰写了许多技术文章，并自愿担任IEEE软件杂志的主编。他最近的一本书是《淘金热之后:创建一个真正的软件工程专业》。您可以通过stevemcc@construx.com与他联系。第十四届软件工程教育与培训会议论文集(CSEET ' 01) 1093-0175 $10.00©2001 IEEE
