@proceedings { 312, title = {Evolving Critical Systems: Essential Articles on Software Engineering}, year = {2011}, publisher = {IEEE}, abstract = {As the ubiquity and complexity of software increase, a requirement has emerged for critical software that can successfully evolve without loss of quality - software that is engineered from the start to be easily changed, extended, and reconfigured, while retaining its security, its performance, and its reliability and predictability. The articles in this EssentialSet bring together the perspectives of key software engineering researchers and practitioners who both influence their organizations and evaluate the emerging practice of developing these new systems.}, keywords = {Evolving Critical Systems, ECS, Software Engineering }, URL = {http://www.computer.org/portal/web/store?product_id=ES0000036&category_id=TechSets}, author = {Mike Hinchey and Lorcan Coyle and Bashar Nuseibeh and José Luiz Fiadeiro} }
