Agent-based support for interactive search in conceptual software design (2008)
Presentation / Conference
Simons, C., & Parmee, I. (2008, July). Agent-based support for interactive search in conceptual software design. Poster presented at 10th Annual Conference on Genetic and Evolutionary Computation (GECCO' 08), Atlanta, Georgia, USA

While recent attempts to search a conceptual software engineering design search space with multi-objective evolutionary algorithms have yielded promising results, the practical application of such search-based techniques remains to be addressed. This... Read More about Agent-based support for interactive search in conceptual software design.

User-centered, evolutionary search in conceptual software design (2008)
Presentation / Conference
Simons, C., & Parmee, I. (2008, June). User-centered, evolutionary search in conceptual software design. Paper presented at IEEE Conference on Evolutionary Computation CEC '08 (IEEE World Conference on Computational Intelligence), Hong Kong

Although much evidence exists to suggest that conceptual software engineering design is a difficult task for software engineers to perform, current computationally intelligent tool support for software engineers is limited. While search-based appro... Read More about User-centered, evolutionary search in conceptual software design.

35 years on: To what extent has software engineering design achieved its goals? (2003)
Journal Article
Parmee, I. C., Simons, C., & Coward, P. D. (2003). 35 years on: To what extent has software engineering design achieved its goals?. IEE Proceedings Software, 150(6), 337-350. https://doi.org/10.1049/ip-sen%3A20031198

The term 'software engineering' was coined in 1968 to introduce the disciplines of established branches of engineering design to software manufacture. Some 35 years on, this paper attempts to gauge the success of software engineering against its orig... Read More about 35 years on: To what extent has software engineering design achieved its goals?.
