+A common misconception amongst software developers is that top quality software 
+encompasses certains platforms, is driven by a particular new piece of 
+technology, or relies solely on a particular programming language.  However as 
+developers we tend to miss the less hyped issues and techniques involved in 
+writing world class software.  These techniques are universal to all 
+programming languages, platforms and deployed technologies but are often times 
+viewed as being so obvious that they are ignored by the typical developer.  The 
+topics covered in this lecture will include:
+<br/><br/>
+- Writing bug-free to extremely low bug count software in real-time<br/>
+- The concept of single-source, universal platform software<br/>
+- Programming language interoperability<br/>
+<br/>
+... and other less hyped yet vitally important concepts to writing
+World Class Software
