Applying Pantomime and Reverse Engineering Techniques in Software Engineering Education
Overview During the past six years, the authors have experimented with various modeling and quality control techniques while teaching software engineering to university students. The first group of experiments compared UML to natural languages (e.g. English); the second group modeled the entire software development process as a sequence of translations from more abstract languages to more formal languages (e.g. from English to UML, from UML to C++, etc.). In these experiments the authors and their students discovered new approaches to increasing productivity of software developers. On this basis, the authors have developed the framework that extends traditional development processes. The framework is built upon two simple, yet powerful principles: Reverse Semantic Traceability (RST) and Speechless Modeling.
