Starting in the late 1980s, the CAiSE series of conferences has
established a platform for presenting and exchanging results of
design-oriented research in - formation systems. In addition to the
presentation of new information systems techniques, recent years
have seen the rise of empirical validation of such te- niques.
There is also increasing attention for industry participation. The
21st CAiSE conference, held in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, during
June 8-12, 2009, continued this tradition. The theme of CAiSE 2009
was "Information Systems for Business Innova- on." Due to the
widespread use of the Web, businesses innovate their propo- tions
to customers and come up with new IT-enabled services. Such
innovation requires understanding of business and technology in an
integrated way. Mul- disciplinary research areas such as service
science, networked enterprises, and social networking are paying
attention to IT and business innovation. This t- me
wasevidentbothinthe pre-conferenceworkshopsandinthe invitedspeakers
of the conference. The ?rst two days consisted of pre-conference
workshops on business process modelling, modelling methods,
requirements engineering, organizational mod- ling,
interoperabilityandcooperation, the knowledgeindustry, ontologies,
gov- nance, Web information systems, business-IT alignment, legal
aspects, systems of things and domain engineering. The conference
proper was combined with a
doctoralconsortiumwherePhDstudentscouldpresentanddiscusstheirresearch
plans and with an industrial event with presentations and
exhibitions. Four invited speakers shed light on the role of
ontologies in business, p- cess mining, business networking and IT
entrepeneurship. Highlights of the conference included a concert
and dinner in the world-famous Concertgebouw building and a
reception in the Muziekgebouw aan het IJ in Amsterdam harbor.
Have you ever felt frustrated working with someone else's code?
Difficult-to-maintain source code is a big problem in software
development today, leading to costly delays and defects. Be part of
the solution. With this practical book, you'll learn 10
easy-to-follow guidelines for delivering C# software that's easy to
maintain and adapt. These guidelines have been derived from
analyzing hundreds of real-world systems. Written by consultants
from the Software Improvement Group (SIG), this book provides clear
and concise explanations, with advice for turning the guidelines
into practice. Examples for this edition are written in C#, while
our companion Java book provides clear examples in that language.
Write short units of code: limit the length of methods and
constructors Write simple units of code: limit the number of branch
points per method Write code once, rather than risk copying buggy
code Keep unit interfaces small by extracting parameters into
objects Separate concerns to avoid building large classes Couple
architecture components loosely Balance the number and size of
top-level components in your code Keep your codebase as small as
possible Automate tests for your codebase Write clean code,
avoiding "code smells" that indicate deeper problems
