of what Christensen calls disruptive technologies. And in software
engineering, there has been no technology more disruptive than
outsourcing. That it should so quickly reach maturity and an
unparalleled scale is truly remarkable; that it should now be
called to demonstrate its sustainability in the current ?nancial
turmoil is the challenge that will prove whether and how it will
endure. Early signs under even the bleak market conditions of the
last 12 months are that it will not only survive, it will ?rmly
establish its role across the world of business. Outsourcing throws
into sharp focus the entire software engineering life- cle. Topics
as diverse as requirements analysis, concurrency and model-checking
need to ?nd a composite working partnership in software engineering
practice. This con?uence arises from need, not dogma, and the
solutions required are those that will have the right e?ect on the
associated activities in the world of the application: e.g.,
reducing the time for a transaction or making the results of a
complex analysis available in real-time. While the business of
outsourcing continues to be studied, the engineering innovations
that make it compelling are constantly changing. It is in this
milieu that this series of conferences has placed itself.
