Workshop Agenda
JANuARy 17, 2007
WASHINgTON, D.C.
9:00-9:15 a.m. Opening Remarks
Committee on Adancing Software-Intensie Systems
Producibility, William Scherlis, Chair
9:15-10:30 Session 1: Process, Architecture, and the grand
Scale
Moderator: Michael Cusumano
John Vu, Boeing
Rick Selby, Northrop Grumman Corporation
What are characteristics of successful approaches to
architecture and design for large-scale systems and
families of systems? What are architecture ideas that
can apply when systems must evolve rapidly? What
kinds of management and measurement approaches
could assist in guiding program managers and
developers?
10:30-10:45 Break
10:45-Noon Session 2: DoD Software Challenges for Future
Systems
Moderator: Douglas Schmidt
Kristen Baldwin, Office of the Undersecretary of Defense for
Acquisitions, Technology and Logistics
Patrick Lardieri, Lockheed Martin

SOFTWARE-INTENSIVE SYSTEMS AND UNCERTAINTY AT SCALE
How are challenges for software in DoD systems,
particularly cyber-physical systems, being met in the
current environment? What advances in R&D, tech-
nology, and practice do we need to achieve success
as demands on this capability increase, particularly
with respect to scale, complexity, and the increasingly
rapid rate of evolution in requirements (and threat)?
Noon-12:45 p.m. Lunch
12:45-1:20 Session 3: Agility at Scale
Moderator: Douglas Schmidt
Kent Beck, Three Riers Institute
Cynthia Andres, Three Riers Institute
How can the engineering and management val-
ues that the “agile community” has identified be
achieved for larger-scale systems and for systems
that must evolve in response to rapidly changing
requirements?
1:20-2:30 Session 4: Quality and Assurance with Scale and
uncertainty
Moderator: William Scherlis
Joe Jarzombek, Department of Homeland Security
Kris Britton, National Security Agency
What are the particular challenges for achieving par-
ticular assurances for software quality and cybersecu-
rity attributes as scale and interconnection increase?
What are emerging best practices and technologies?
What kinds of new technologies and practices could
assist? This includes, particularly, interventions
that can be made as part of the development pro-
cess, rather than after the fact. Interventions could
include practices, processes, tools, and so on. How
should cost-effectiveness be assessed? What are the
prospects for certification, both at a comprehensive
level and with respect to particular critical quality
attributes?

APPENDIX A
2:45-4:00 Session 4 (continued)
Mary Ann Daidson, Oracle Corporation
Gary McGraw, Cigital
4:00-5:15 Session 5: Enterprise Scale and beyond
Moderator: Jim Larus
Werner Vogels, Amazon.com
Alfred Spector, AZS-Serices
What are the characteristics of successful approaches
to addressing scale and uncertainty in the commer-
cial sector, and what can the defense community
learn from this experience? What are the emerging
software challenges for large-scale enterprises and
interconnected enterprises? What do you see as
emerging technology developments that relate to
this?
5:15-6:00 Closing Discussion
