    Automation Seminars
    Dear All

    Software Engineering Automation Thursday! (SEAT)


    Finally all the major economies and industrialized nations are agreed upon one fact. Yes. The global economy is on recession. Fewer and fewer demands for the goods. Credit squeeze. Large lay-offs resulting increased unemployment.

    Does this all means everything is going to come to an end? Of course not. Things will change. Bu the big question is how can we overcome this? How do we successfully handle this? There are two ways to react to this. One – take a panic action, two – a calculated future oriented action. If you look back into the history, this is not the first time world is facing an economic recession. It had happened many times, with many different magnitudes.

    Like any other industry, IT industry is also facing the heat of the Economic recession. Most of the other major industries are enjoying the advantage of automation. But, to a sharp contrast, even today, the automation in software development area is very minimal. Even in the highest industrialized economies, once it comes to the software development, the scenario is not different. All the major economies have become to that level with the effective use of automation of the various parts of the manufacturing areas.

    The challenge now is to improve productivity and along with predictability. This can happen only with automation. As explained in the classical work “Mythical Man-Month” by Frederick P. Brooks adding people to a project will not ensure speedy results, rather it will affect adversely. So, What could be the calculated future oriented action?
    Software has become an integral part of day to day living. For the very same reason, we need to have a high degree of predictability during the development time. This is the right time, we need to think about automation of various parts of software development life cycle activities. In my opinion, we will not have a better time than today, during the recession, to think about automation. Take charge of the situation by implementing some automation solutions for the software development activities. This will not only reduce the chaos, but will bring long term, sustainable productivity enhancement too!

    We, Astra Infotech, would like to contribute our part to the software development community. We would like to spread the awareness of automation as well as would like to expose you the benefits of various software engineering automation tools. Astra Infotech would like to launch our “Software Engineering Automation Thursday!” seminar series from January,2009. This will open up the possibilities of automation of various parts of software development life cycle. What we intent with this seminar series is to create the awareness of software engineering automation and tools.

    We request you to take this opportunity to nominate / attend the seminars to understand and stay updated. We are planning to conduct this across Germany at various locations. Reserve your SEAT!
