Schedule

Description

Residuality theory is a novel approach where the software architecture of a system emerges as a result of applying multiple stressors to the system. However, some seasoned software practitioners often design solid software architecture without knowing this theory.

We have reasons to consider that the heuristics from modern design approaches like Domain-Driven Design may well be congruent, to some extent, with what residuality theory would suggest. This talk by the author of the theory (Barry) and by a DDD long-timer (Cyrille) will explore the intersection between the two worlds, in a rigorous yet entertaining way.
