Software Development as Knowledge Creation

نویسنده

  • Sidney C. Bailin
چکیده

This paper proposes a fundamental change in the way we view software development and the role of software in our society. We argue that the conventional understanding of software as a vehicle for automation is responsible for some of the most serious problems in the industry. As an alternative, we present a view of software as knowledge, and software development as knowledge creation. This shift in understanding can help to unsettle many deeply ingrained beliefs that have contributed to the software crisis; it points the way to alternative processes based on the goals of inquiry, discovery, and knowledge sharing.
