[comp.software-eng] Significant SW development problem

timk@meaddata.com (Tim Klein) (01/16/91)

An assignment in my Software Engineering class is to "find a published
account of a significant problem in the development of a software system
or product, or a report of significant operational, safety, or reliability
problems being experienced with a commercial or government software 
system" and discuss it.

Can anybody point me toward a nice juicy one?  Is there any publication
devoted to that kind of thing?  E-mail is preferred.  Thanks!


By the way, are any other readers taking the Software Engineering course
at the University of Idaho (CS 381/581)?  I'm taking it off-campus
through the National Technological University.
