Desirable Government Action for Software Engineering Kouichi Kishida SRA-KYL, Inc K2@sra.co.jp
My Own Closed Encounterwith Government • PPDS - 1975-80 (CASE Development) • SMEF - 1981-85 (Unix Environmet) • Walking out from SIGMA (1986) • CMM - Long debate about “What is SPI?” • DynC – First Experience with MOE
What are Government Officials • No Long-Term Policy • Ad hoc style of decision making • Weak interest in technology • 3 Major Concerns • Budget • Chairs in satellite organizations • Relation with big companys
Tentative Strategy in My Hands • Effective use of budget • at least 10% for real technology development • Put some hidden (real) project behind the scene
Long Term Strategy • Needs for Global Perspective • Do not to be sensitive about international competition • But to target global needs for technology • Be careful about evolution of social environment
What We Need Now • Long term funding for: - Very fundamental research in software engineering for future • Targeting 5-10 years later • Technical infrastructure for future society • Conceptual foundation of software engineering in relation to sociology and/or linguitics
