    2019 -Learning How to Learn

    • #KEYNOTE_SURPRISE

    Every groundbreaking advance in software engineering – from the iPhone to space exploration to self-driving cars, not to mention the Internet and the Cloud – has followed the same arc. First there is the impossible challenge. Then there is a long hard slog of learning, with all its ups and downs. Eventually a solution emerges, which always looks obvious in retrospect. Finally, copycats try to achieve the same success, but they bypass the learning part; they don’t buy Thomas Edison’s observation that that innovation is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration. This talk is about Learning Organizations and what they do differently. It draws on examples from our rich history of breakthroughs to show how organizations create a climate that fosters innovation.

    2019 -Reliability Engineering: The Essential Discipline for Complex Systems

    • #TALK

    The days of trying to prevent failures are gone. In today’s high-volume, cloud-based systems, anything that can go wrong will eventually go wrong. It is far better to spend our time engineering fault tolerance than pursuing the impossible goal of fault prevention. Not only is reliability engineering one of the highest paying jobs in software engineering today, it is also a job full of unique challenges that demand creative thinking and problem solving.
    This talk is about the multiple aspects of reliability engineering that have become critically important as our world has become increasingly dependent on software systems.
