The mythical matched modules: overcoming inflexible software construction
- đ¤ Speaker: Stephen Kell (University of Cambridge)
- đ Date & Time: Tuesday 20 October 2009, 13:00 - 13:45
- đ Venue: Computer Laboratory, William Gates Building, Room FW11
Abstract
Conventional programming tools are designed according to several harmful and false assumptions: that software necessarily consists of plug-compatible modules; that interoperation between software stacks is rare; that information hiding is a sufficient strategy against coupling. I will briefly present an alternative vision, based on tool support for “interface hiding”, a strongly-enforced separation of concerns between integration and functionality in software. This will include both argument and (some, preliminary) experimental evidence.
This is a practice for a (very) short talk at the forthcoming Onward! conference.
Series This talk is part of the Computer Laboratory NetOS Group Talklets series.
