- Coming Soon! -

+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: +

+- Writing bug-free to extremely low bug count software in real-time
+- The concept of single-source, universal platform software
+- Programming language interoperability
+
+... and other less hyped yet vitally important concepts to writing +World Class Software +
