Democratizing Software CreationBusiness users doing programming? In this session will we present radical new software approach that separates business knowledge from software engineering knowledge. This simplifies the creation process for software as business experts directly contribute using their customary domain description resulting in accelerated innovation. Business experts are more innovative and responsive to changes in their domain. As an application of this new approach, Capgemini is building a new Pension Workbench that allows pension experts to express their business domain knowledge using a Pension Domain Language that follows very closely their customary format and specialized nomenclature. The corresponding Pension software implementation is generated from Generators built by programmers. Freed from the need to encode every business requirement or change the programmers concentrate on the job they do the best, creating a clean, reusable and reliable program. Innovation is accelerated as everyone in the team has the effective means of expressing their intentions.
