A Possible Future of Software Development


Google Tech Talks
July, 25 2007

ABSTRACT

This talk begins with an overview of software development at Adobe and a look at industry trends towards systems built around object oriented frameworks; why they "work", and why they ultimately fail to deliver quality, scalable, software. We'll look at a possible alternative to this future, combining generic programming with declarative programming to build high quality, scalable systems.


Speaker: Sean Parent
Sean Parent is a principal scientist at Adobe Systems and engineering manager of the Adobe Software Technology Lab. One of his team's current projects is the Adobe Source Libraries

So, Sean, this is why Adobe products are riddled with more holes than a sieve these days?

Agreed. The video is a great case study on how to build a quality reusable library/framework.

Kudos to you and everyone involved to make ASL open source in MIT license. I'm one of the fortunate (paid) open source developers as well.

My original comment meant to point out that the title of the video might be a bit misleading to people who're expecting new methodologies and/or new tools/languages.
