Software engineering is understood as a broad term linking science, traditional en- neering, art and management and is additionally conditioned by social and external factors (conditioned to the point that brilliant engineering solutions based on strong science, showing artistic creativity and skillfully managed can still fail for reasons beyond the control of the development team). Modern software engineering needs a paradigm shift commensurate with a change of the computing paradigm from: 1. Algorithms to interactions (and from procedural to object-oriented programming) 2. Systems development to systems integration 3.Products to services Traditional software engineering struggles to address this paradigm shift to inter- tions, integration, and services. It offers only incomplete and disconnected methods for building information systems with fragmentary ability to dynamically accom- date change and to grow gracefully. The principal objective of contemporary software engineering shouldtherefore be to try to redefine the entire discipline and offer a complete set of methods, tools and techniques to address challenges ahead that will shape the information systems of the future.

Since 1994 Stefan Jablonski has given lectures in database management, web based application development, integration technologies and workflow. He has published more than 100 papers, mainly in the area of business process engineering and workflow management.

Klappentext

This book is a peer-reviewed collection of papers, modified and extended for the purpose of this publication, but originally presented at the International Conference on Evaluation of Novel Approaches to Software Engineering 2008 and 2009 (ENASE 2008 / 2009). The book's content is placed within the entire framework of software engineering activities, but with particular emphasis on experience reports and evaluations (qualitative and quantitative) of existing approaches as well as new ideas and proposals for improvements.
