Initial Thoughts on the PEBBLEMAN Process.

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to stimulate thinking and participation in the planning and development of an effective software environment to accompany the DoD common high order programming language. It examines several views of programming environments from different perspectives, catalogues a number of issue areas, asks some as yet unanswered questions, and provides some initial analyses. The tentative conclusions encompass twelve goals that appear to be important for an effective software development and maintenance environment. (Author)
