Subject: IFIP and Professional standards in Software Engineering
Dear IFIP TC6 Chair/Vice Chair/Secretary and Officers of the TC6 Workimg
Groups
I apologise for any cross postings/communications
I am the Vice Chair of WG3.4 which is concerned with Professional and
Vocational Education in Information Technology. During the last two
years I have been involved in a number of international activities
concerned with the promotion , within the field of Software Engineering,
of proposals made in an IFIP document entitled Harmonization of
Professional Standards. The next of these activities will be an
International Summit on Software Engineering Professionalism which will
be held on Monday 20th May 2002. This event is co-located with the
International Conference on Software Engineering.
I would greatly appreciate if you could bring the following invitation
to the summit to the attention of those who you believe may like to be
involved in it.
Thanking you in advance
Prof. J. Barrie Thompson

An Invitation to Attend the International Summit on Software Engineering
Professionalism (SSEP)
A Special One-Day Event to be held on Monday May 20th 2002
Co-Located with the International Conference on Software Engineering
Orlando, Florida, USA, May 19-25, 2002
Information: http://www.cet.sunderland.ac.uk/ssep/
Registration is via the ICSE 2002 web site:
http://www.icse-conferences.org/2002/
Also visit: http://www.icse-conferences.org/2002/info/colocated.html
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The summit will continue work, undertaken in 2000 and 2001, to promote
consideration and evaluation of a document entitled the Harmonization
of Professional Standards that had been produced under the auspices of
the International Federation for Information Processing. A copy of the
IFIP Harmonization document can be found at:
http://www.cet.sunderland.ac.uk/ssep/
This previous work included workshops in 2001 at the International
Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE2001) and the Conference on
Software Engineering Education and Training (CSEE&T 2001). The latter
was held in Charlotte North Carolina in February 2001 the results of
this have been reported in depth in a paper published in Education and
Information Technologies Volume 6 Number 4 December 2001. A clear
outcome of these activities is that the document produced by IFIP can
provide an effective framework for the harmonisation of Software
Engineering professionalism BUT ! The IFIP document does contain
relevant concepts and a useful framework which is acceptable within a
range of geographical locations, but there is a significant level of
detail that is missing which needs to be added to enable its effective
use. To supply the missing details we must:
- Try and build up a truly international view and be sensitive to local
situations.
- Get accurate data and find out what the situation is across the world
both in the areas of professional practice and educational structures.
The prime aim of this summit is to provide a forum to consider global
aspects of a Software Engineering profession that are relevant to the
following four areas highlighted by IFIP:
1. Education and Training
2. Professional experience
3. Best Practice and Proven Methodologies
4. Maintenance of Competence
Attendees of the summit are requested to submit short position papers (a
maximum of 3 pages) that address one or more of the above topic areas by
10th May. Papers should include proposals regarding what needs to be
produced to support the relevant sections in the IFIP document. These
position papers and the activities at the summit should enable opinions
to be formed on:
- What are the key steps in a career in Software Engineering ?
- What education and training are needed?
- How should professional behaviour be regulated?
- How is competence maintained and certified?
Are you interested in Software Engineering professionalism and ensuring
global standards? If so please contact one of the organisers for the
summit for more details:

Remember if we dont define the profession and what counts then
eventually the lawyers and the courts will do it for us!

Brief Information on the IFIP document Harmonization of Professional
Standards
The IFIP Harmonization document highlights six areas for consideration
with regard to professional standards. These are:
- Professional Practice
- Established Body of Knowledge
- Education and Training
- Professional experience
- Best Practice and Proven Methodologies
- Maintenance of Competence
The needs of the first two areas can be seen to be reasonably matched by
existing projects as follows:
Professional Practice: The Software Engineering Code of Ethics and
Professional Practice, details of this are available at the following
Web Sites: http://computer.org/tab/seprof/code.htm, and
http://computer.org/tab/sweec/SWCEPP
Established Body of Knowledge: the Guide to the Software Engineering
Body of Knowledge, details of this are available at the SWEBOK Project
Web Site: http://www.swebok.org
However, much needs to be done to investigate the needs of the other
four areas and this is the purpose of the workshop.

IFIP Information Release
Slovenia, 19 April 2002 Representatives of the computer societies of
Austria, Croatia, Czech Rep., Hungary, Slovakia, Slovenia, and IFIP have
assembled in Portoroz, Slovenia during the Annual Conference of the
Slovenian Society INFORMATIKA, 17 19 April.
Yesterday, IT STAR held a regular meeting which admitted Croatia to IT STAR
membership. The procedure for Croatian membership to IFIP is also
initiated. IT STAR reviewed and accepted a preliminary report for the
establishment of a regional IT Pool of experts and institutions. The
President of the Slovenian Society INFORMATIKA and the IFIP Executive
Director (and IT STAR Coordinator) were requested to develop a detailed
proposal, based on the Portoroz agreements, for the next IT STAR meeting in
Bratislava, Slovakia in November 2002. IT STAR members will increase their
efforts to promote the forthcoming 17th IFIP World Computer Congress in
Montreal.
Today, IT STAR country papers on ICT will be presented at a special
Conference session. These papers are a valuable source of reference
information on institutions, regulations, challenges and applications in
the region.
More information on IT STAR is available at http://www.ifip.or.at/it-star
National papers, submitted before the Portoroz event, can be accessed at
the STAR site.
