A Science of Software Design
TLDR
This paper reviews the elementary ideas upon which these algebras rest and argues that they define the basis for a science of software design.
The Philosophy of Computer Science
A survey of approaches for the visual model-driven development of next generation software-intensive systems
Improving Coverage of Design in Information Systems Education
TLDR
The paper recommends adding numerous topics related to design candidate generation including means-ends analysis, sketching, storyboarding and problem modeling to improve coverage of crucial design topics.
A teleological process theory of software development
TLDR
Results from a pilot case suggest that the observed behaviors of the development team are better described by the proposed theory than by the FBS Framework.
Towards the Correctness of Software Behavior in UML: A Model Checking Approach Based on Slicing
TLDR
An UML-based verification method that checks whether the conditions on the evolution of the embedded system are met by the model, and suggests the integration of the slicing (reduction) technique.
Introducing an Empirical Model of Design
TLDR
The Empirical Model is intended to replace the Rational Model as a foundation for design methods and practices, design education and design science research.
Thinging as a Way of Modeling in Poiesis: Applications in Software Engineering
TLDR
This paper proposes adopting a recent addition to the diagrammatic languages, the thinging machine (abbreviated TM), as a design language in the general area of Poiesis and exemplify TM by applying it to software engineering design.
PDISC - Towards a Method for Software Product DISCovery - Type: Exploratory Paper
TLDR
PDISC helps practitioners to conduct early activities in a systematic way in order to create a product vision and form a method database that is used to develop PDISC.
A Critical Analysis of Topics in Software Architecture and Design
TLDR
From the analysis derived, stakeholder’s involvement and decision in software design is an integral part in software building for effective use, making researchers dwell more on the topic.

Design patterns: elements of reuseable object-oriented software
The book is an introduction to the idea of design patterns in software engineering, and a catalog of twenty-three common patterns. The nice thing is, most experienced OOP designers will find out…
The Central Role of Design in Software Engineering
TLDR
It is essential that software engineering education provide solid and in-depth instruction in design, as this activity is the central integrating activity that ties the others together.
A Theory of Objects
TLDR
This book takes a novel approach to the understanding of object-oriented languages by introducing object calculi and developing a theory of objects around them, which covers both the semantics of objects and their typing rules.
