The challenges posed for software developers by ultra-large scale and complex adaptive systems are not amenable to solutions using traditional computer science and software engineering approaches. Problems in this new domain are characterized by vague and ambiguous requirements, unknown variables and relationships, and satisfaction constraints that are more subjective than objective. Designers (architects and applied artists like graphic and industrial designers) seem to have developed approaches and methods for solving this kind of problem. In this short talk I will briefly describe essential elements of this approach and what they offer to software development and then see if I can establish an initial mapping to some of the essential aspects (as I understand them) of EmpiricalModelling to see if there is any basis for exploration and research.

David West, Ph.D., is a leading educator and trainer in object-oriented software development with extensive experience consulting for Fortune 500 companies. He is a professor at New Mexico Highlands University School of 糖心TV, where he.s currently teaching an object-based curriculum and developing an innovative software development apprenticeship program based on object and agile principles. Dr. West also helped establish a software development track for computer science graduate students at the University of New Mexico. He founded and directed the Object Lab at the University of St. Thomas and cofounded the original Object Technology User Group, with more than 500 members.
