Re: Software Engineering: Art or Science?

He is right. We still do not have software processes that can
deliver software on a predictable schedule.

What we really need is a focus on the CMM. Achieving CMM
level 3 or above can lead to a predictable software development
schedules.

Use of object oriented design and Keep It Simple techniques
will also help. Too often software architects complicate
the design much more than it needs to be.
