What kind of Computer Science matters?
Just came across Why Computer Science Matters? by Vugranam Sreedhar. He observes a decline in real computer scientists in favour of ‘commodity programmers’. Basically, I have to (sad but true) agree here, and would like to take a closer look … Continue reading
Off Topic: Complexity Awareness in the Wild
On companies, software solutions, and what a business analyst can do for them – if they let him. Continue reading
Sorry, I’m not infinite, I’m just complex
While dealing with infinity is more about the existence of a solution dealing with complexity is mainly about finding the optimal effort/ benefit trade-off … really? Continue reading
Modelling and Abstraction on Twitter in 2012 (so far)
Some tweets I enjoyed, on Model Thinking, Open Access, Modelling and Software Engineering Continue reading
Lecture Notes on Model Thinking IV
Some lecture notes/ scribble on Model Thinking by Scott E. Page. Lecture “Segregation and Peer Effects”, Part 2: “Schelling’s Segregation Model”: Schelling built a model and executed it in order to analyse the empirical phenomenon of segregation … Continue reading

Human centric Modelling
There is a modelling at the low-end, that we use every day a million times, and there is modelling at the high-end with comprehensive concepts like UML, MDD etc. Both are good to have. Perhaps approaching the modelling topic from the low-end would make it easier accessible for most of the software practitioners. Continue reading

Modelling Abstraction etc in 2011
Just reviewed my Twitter timeline of 2011: … (tweets, links, and wisdoms of the year) Continue reading
Complexity Awareness is Cost Awareness
If “engineering is producing an artifact to cost”, then how can modelling contribute to it? Continue reading
Complexity Aware Modelling II
Complexity aware people are able to recognize complexity, and regard it over things like size. How do they recognise? Mainly by modelling! Continue reading
