A building code for building code: putting what we know works to work

摘要

Software security, safety, reliability, availability, serviceability, and similar areas have always been the "soft underbelly" of the software development industry. The author of this paper calls on the field to create a "building code" for building software. The paper includes many examples of code and related works in construction and other industries. I would like to point out two major differences between construction, as an example, and computer software technologies, which makes this an elusive comparison.
