Successful libraries arguably achieve the right balance among these software engineering dimensions:   1. requirement, i.e., fulfilling the correct anticipated needs;   2. architecture, i.e., being easily composable with others and evolvable as new requirements surface; and   3. scalability, i.e., using efficient algorithms and providing further means to customize and compose them for performance. This talk relates software engineering lessons learned by the speaker while writing a number of widely used libraries.

It includes a public-key based system with no advantages over a secret-key based system, one in which encryption was used where what was really needed was integrity protection, one in which adding security decreased the reliability and did nothing to enhance the security of the system, unmanageable or unscalable PKI models, and an email standard that allowed forging signatures.

It starts with the assumption that clusters are heterogeneous in both hardware and functionality. Rocks decomposes the configuration of nodes (termed appliances) into small, reusable building blocks that include both software package and configuration information. Using a graph construction, shared configuration information across appliance types can be easily expressed. Utilizing the extensive hardware probing of modern OS installers, heterogeneous nodes become no harder to support than assumed homogeneous nodes. Installation and reinstallation performance figures will be given.

Salus, Matrix NetSystems It's a bird! It's a plane! Look! Up in the sky . . . If no one could agree on Superman, no wonder we aren't quite certain what the Internet looks like when it goes home to Smallville and takes off its Clark Kent suit. Thirty years ago, when the ARPAnet had well under 50 hosts, the diagram was easy; 20 years ago, when the number was 400, it could still be mastered. But today there are well over 200 million hosts. Several different approaches are currently being pursued to represent the stucture and population of the Internet, and much of the data is muddled and inconsistent. Thus, part of the challenge is to gather it into a coherent representation of what's out there.
