Software Engineering is all about Modelling

There is a great article over at O’reilly entitled “Striking parallels between mathematics and software engineering”.  I’ve never really  thought about the parallels of Math and Software Engineering.  I’ve thought about Civil Engineering, Medicine, and the Law; but not Mathematics.  To summarize, the author says that Mathematics is really about modelling and that is what we do in software engineering continually, especially when following object-oriented paradigms.  It is striking and has opened my eyes to a whole other avenue to explore when it comes to Software Engineering.  Just thought I’d share 🙂
