Presentation: "Patterns of Software Change"
Time: Tuesday 10:50 - 11:50
Location: Salon D
In the industry, we often have a static view of software architecture.
Organizations plan a set architecture with the assumption that it will be not be significantly. Even if they are savvy, and they rarely look beyond the immediate target architecture to imagine how its base assumptions might change in the future. As in any other discipline, we can often get a sense of how change happens by mining history. In this talk, Michael Feathers will outline patterns he has seen in various projects which give a good indication of the points in time when large-scale change should be undertaken.
