Quotes

• “Perhaps the greatest strength of an object-oriented approach to development is that it offers a mechanism that captures a model of the real world.”
• “The entire history of software engineering is that of the rise in levels of abstraction.”
• “As a noun, design is the named (although sometimes unnamable) structure or behavior of a system whose presence resolves or contributes to the resolution of a force or forces on that system. A design thus represents one point in a potential decision space. A design may be singular (representing a leaf decision) or it may be collective (representing a set of other decisions).”
• “The amateur software engineer is always in search of magic, some sensational method or tool whose application promises to render software development trivial. It is the mark of the professional software engineer to know that no such panacea exist.”
• “is a style of enterprise application development and integration, based on using automated tools to build system independent models and transform them into efficient implementations.”
• “The function of good software is to make the complex appear to be simple.”
