The Future Of Software Engineering
In case you haven’t heard about it yet, let me point you to FOSE, the Future Of Software Engineering [1] symposium in Zurich next week, organized by Sebastian Nanz. It is all made of invited talks; it is hard to think (with the possible exception of the pioneers’ conference [2]) of any previous gathering of so many software engineering innovators:
- Barry Boehm
- Manfred Broy
- Patrick Cousot
- Erich Gamma
- Yuri Gurevich
- Michael Jackson
- Rustan Leino
- David Parnas
- Dieter Rombach
- Joseph Sifakis
- Niklaus Wirth
- Pamela Zave
- Andreas Zeller
The symposium is over two days. It is followed by a special event on “Eiffel at 25” which, as the rest of FOSE, is resolutely forward-looking, presenting a number of talks on current Eiffel developments, particularly in the areas of verification integrated in the development cycle (see “Verification As A Matter Of Course” [3]) and concurrent programming.

Hi Bertrand,
That’s a great looking list of speakers! Is there any chance that videos from the symposium and/or “Eiffel at 25” will be available online?
Kind regards,
Ian
