Abstract

In this partially complete paper, Warfield argues that the software industry in 1989 lacked a concrete philosophy. "Software science," he writes "which could could furnish a sound basis for analyzing and correcting most or all of the difficulties facing the software industry today, is almost non-existent." Until the software industry addressed this problem, Warfield predicted it would suffer indefinitely. John N. Warfield 76.40
