Conscientious SoftwarePosted by hiheiss on March 30, 2006 at 03:35 PM | Comments (1)Conscientious Software: Part One of a Conversation with Sun Microsystems Laboratories' Ron Goldman Here's a rich IMHO interview with Sun's Ron Goldman by yours truly. Ron's a senior staff engineer at Sun Labs who is working with Richard Gabriel to envision a new software model. As we move into a world of massive software interdependence where standalone apps are on the way out, Ron wants to develop ways to make "large systems more robust, stable, and better able to take care of themselves." He wants software to start using cpu cycles "to actively monitor its own activity and environment, to continually perform self-testing, to catch errors and automatically recover from them, to automatically configure itself during installation, to participate in its own development and customization, to pay attention to how humans use it and become easier to use over time, and to protect itself from damage when patches and updates are installed." Are you enticed by his vision?... Bookmark blog post:  del.icio.us  Digg  DZone  Furl  Reddit
