Presentation: "Of Code and Change: Beautiful Software"
Time:
Tuesday 10:30 - 11:20
Location:
Rytmisk Sal
Abstract: The notion that programming is equivalent to "writing code" is hard to dispel. Despite modern IDEs such as Eclipse, which support the manipulation of code at a higher level of abstraction, such as when applying refactorings, in the eyes of many a developer at the end of the day it's all about source code. In this presentation I'll present bleeding edge research advances, such as elaborate 3D visualizations and fine-graine change recording. The goal is to demonstrate that systems are highly interesting and complex constructs that are evolved through small evolutionary steps. In short, software is beautiful.
