Issues for Applications Developers

Abstract

Development of the right applications software for the water industry that is robust, flexible, maintainable, and portable requires a strategy that determines user needs, creates software in a develop, test, user feedback process, and includes training and support. Software engineering decisions related to the choice of engineering methodologies, program architecture, coding languages, graphics and other support libraries, and adoption of hardware and software industry standards are critical to success. Development of engineering applications software is best accomplished by organizations with experience in both the problem addressed and software development and support.
