Adventures in Code : The Story of the Irish Software Industry Paperback / softback
by John Sterne
Paperback / softback
Description
Adventures in Code tells the story of the software industry in Ireland through the experiences of its key figures.
It explains how a small country with no apparent aptitude for applications development produced hundreds of small exporting companies and broke through the barriers to selling non-American products in the US.
Its central thesis is that Ireland's success in software development came from the bottom up, the result of a long learning process that included lessons from the near-total collapse of the industry in the late 1980s.
Companies learned from each other and the book profiles those that became the role models in middleware, e-learning, financial applications, and communications software.
The book concludes with a look at the state of the Irish software industry today and considers its prospects in a fast-changing world.
