I want to share ideas from Youdon. His presentation for Software Best Practices Conference is about Ten Most Important Ideas in Software Engineering.  Here is what he talks about:

  1. You can’t control what you can’t measure
  2. Peopleware
  3. Incrementalism
  4. Iteration
  5. Repair costs increase
  6. Tradeoffs are non-linear
  7. Reuse is important
  8. Risk management provides insights
  9. Consistency trumps brillance + death march
  10. Don’t reinvent the wheel
