The Use of Cross-Domain Language by Expert Software Developers
The Use of Cross-Domain Language by Expert Software Developers
The language and thought of expert software developers is permeated by characteristic terminology that crosses domains of reference, but there are interesting questions about whether these usages are metaphoric. The observations we report here were made during a study of the expertise of software engineers, conducted as part of a project to develop training in how to debug large software systems (Riedl, Weitzenfeld, Freeman, Klein, & Musa, 1991; …
Valid Reasoning by Analogy
Reasoning that compares two objects or situations to draw conclusions about previously unknown properties of one of them has traditionally been taken to be ampliative and probabilistic. I propose that it is apodeictic reasoning from a premise about isomorphic structures that is often uncertain, but which we may have good reasons to believe. I characterize the structures and their isomorphism, describe patterns of reasoning appropriate to them, an…
