What Should We Teach New Software Developers? Why?

,----[ Quote ]
| Computer science must be at the center of 
| software systems development. If it is not, 
| we must rely on individual experience and 
| rules of thumb, ending up with less capable, 
| less reliable systems, developed and 
| maintained at unnecessarily high cost. We 
| need changes in education to allow for 
| improvements of industrial practice.

| The devices underpinning today's 
| communications networks grow increasingly 
| powerful, in their speed, throughput, 
| features and supported services. That's 
| great for users - but it presents a 
| significant challenge for manufacturers.

PRODUCT HOW-TO: A New Approach to Embedded Linux Development

,----[ Quote ]
| The commercial embedded Linux market was 
| created ten years ago when Jim Ready founded 
| MontaVista Software. At the time, skeptics 
| said Linux would never work for embedded 
| development, it lacked key features required 
| for embedded systems, and the performance 
| wasn't comparable to existing real time 
| operating systems (RTOS).

| Nokia updated its Qt application framework to
| version 4.6 on December 1st, adding support for
| several operating systems â most notably its
| own mobile platforms: the recently open source
| Symbian and the Linux-based Maemo. Qt 4.6
| introduces new graphics features, new input
| methods, and updates to the QtScript scripting
| engine. Along with the framework itself, Nokia
| updated its cross-platform Qt integrated
| development environment (IDE) Qt Creator to
| support the new features and new target
| platforms.
