The book focuses on defining the achievements of software engineering in the past decades and showcasing visions for the future. It features a collection of articles by some of the most prominent researchers and technologists who have shaped the field: Barry Boehm, Manfred Broy, Patrick Cousot, Erich Gamma, Yuri Gurevich, Michael A. Jackson, Rustan Leino, David Parnas, Dieter Rombach, Joseph Sifakis, Niklaus Wirth, Pamela Zave, and Andreas Zeller. The contributedarticles reflect the authors' individual views on what constitutes the most important issues facing software development. Both research- and technology-oriented contributions are included. The book provides at the same time a record of a symposium at ETH Zurich on the occasion of Bertrand Meyer's 60th birthday. The authors are prominent researchers and technologists in software engineering, providing authoritative insights into the field The topic focuses on future visions for software engineering, providing a rare research roadmap for thefield The inclusion of both research- and technology-oriented contributions should appeal to a broad audience INDICE: Barry Boehm: Some Future Software Engineering Opportunities and Challenges.- Manfred Broy: Seamless Method- and Model-based Software and SystemsEngineering.-Patrick Cousot, Radhia Cousot, Laurent Mauborgne: Reduced Product of Logical and Algebraic Abstract Interpretations.- Yuri Gurevich, Michal Moskal, Itay Neeman: Evidental Communication.- Michael Jackson: Engineering and Software Engineering.- Rustan Leino: Abstraction and Tools.- David Lorge Parnas: Precise Documentation: The Key To Better Software.- Pamela Zave: A Compositional Architecture for the Next Internet.- Andreas Zeller: Mining Specifications.
