Abstract :
As the discipline of software engineering prepares for the ever-increasing development of applications based on preproduced software components, it is time to reflect on the emergence of the engineering profession in the United States. A brief review of bridge construction-one of the earliest engineering endeavors-can help, as bridges are required for interrelationships among people and governments, the growth of commerce, and the proliferation of new ideas
