“What is Software Design?”
Jack W. Reeves
C++ Journal, Fall 1992

REAL SOFTWARE RUNS ON COMPUTERS. IT IS A
SEQUENCE OF ONES AND ZEROS THAT IS STORED
ON SOME MAGNETIC MEDIA. IT IS NOT A
PROGRAM LISTING…
Jack W. Reeves

A PROGRAM LISTING IS A DOCUMENT
THAT REPRESENTS A SOFTWARE DESIGN.
Jack W. Reeves

COMPILERS AND LINKERS ACTUALLY
BUILD SOFTWARE DESIGNS.
Jack W. Reeves

REAL SOFTWARE IS INCREDIBLY CHEAP
TO BUILD, AND GETTING CHEAPER ALL
THE TIME AS COMPUTERS GET FASTER.

THE COLLECTIVE SUBCONSCIOUS OF THE SOFTWARE INDUSTRY
INSTINCTIVELY KNOWS THAT IMPROVEMENTS IN PROGRAMMING
TECHNIQUES AND REAL WORLD PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES IN
PARTICULAR ARE OVERWHELMINGLY MORE IMPORTANT THAN
ANYTHING ELSE IN THE SOFTWARE BUSINESS.
Jack W. Reeves

THE REAL INNOVATION THAT IS CLOUD NATIVE
IS TRANSFORMING DELIVERY FROM DUMPING
BITS ON A FLOPPY TO REPLACING CELLS IN A
"LIVING" ORGANISM.
