SEI technologists have many venues for publicizing their work, including books, journals, technical reports and notes, technical conference proceedings, and trade magazines. These venues generally disseminate somewhat delayed information in a one-way read-only fashion, however, and are often intended for highly specialized audiences. This blog will provide immediate and accessible insights into the broad spectrum of work we do at the SEI via a two-way read-write medium where we can interact with you, our audience, rapidly and effectively.

Blog posts will be written by SEI technologists with different backgrounds, expertise, and interests. Some posts will summarize the goals and results of advanced research projects at the cutting edge of science and technology. Other posts will highlight the work of SEI technologists with customer-facing roles on applied, transition- and acquisition-oriented topics. In all cases, we will strive for clarity, brevity, and relevance.

This blog will be interactive since we believe the best insights come from dialogue and debate with other technologists, users, and stakeholders. Although we have expertise in many software and systems engineering topics, we’re always interested in new insights and new opportunities to partner on emerging technologies and interests. We therefore welcome your feedback and look forward to engaging with you in ways that are most effective with web-based technical communication. Whenever possible, posts will include contact information and links to further information for readers who want to know more, or who are looking to collaborate with us on new ideas. Please feel free to send us your ideas and feedback through blog comments. Or, if you prefer, you can contact us at info@sei.cmu.edu with your comments and suggestions.
