Our intuitive Engineering philosophy implemented at Microsoft and the Software Engineering Institute.
Some three years ago, I had the intuition that Systems Engineering, Software Engineering, Agile Methodology, CMMI methodology, and the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) would make footprints in the real estate of Microsoft Corporation’s campuses and world renown Software Engineering Institute (SEI) at Carnegie Mellon University.
SEI at Carnegie Mellon Univerisity has recently arbitrated their SDLC to be the ultimate blind date with our prior intuitive leadership in software engineering and system engineering for bidding and contracts with the Department of Defense (DoD) warfare transactions.
For past decades, many Software Developers and Web Developers in the Microsoft .NET development community grammatically spoke of software engineering as dogfood. Strikingly, the flavor of Microsoft has changed somewhat dramatically since Steve Ballmer got Bill Gates’ pair of Chuck Taylors. Today, state of the art disciplines developed by Software Engineers of Microsoft Research have transcended software development and testing into the latest versions of the .NET Framework as Software Development Engineers and Software Development Engineers in Test. As CEO, and founder of Florida Software Engineers, I have long awaited the day that software engineering is no longer a moniker or unwelcomed at Microsoft. Cascading around the United States, children wearing mittens are trading them in for keyboards and opportunities to obtain certification through the Microsoft® IT Academy at designated schools such as Dunbar High School located here in Ft. Myers, Florida. Look for my upcoming blog on a Microsoft Case Study of Dunbar High School, and how new breeds of software development engineering has transcended future Microsoft technologies from Redmond to Ft. Myers and Southwest Florida.
Today, the accountability of defining engineering in software and systems engineering, Microsoft and SEI heuristically have become mutually compliant to Florida Softare Engineers’ bill of good health at prescribing best-of-breed software solutions.
