Research on the Innovative Modes and Innovative Routes of Software Engineering Theory

With research of the process of innovation for the theory of software engineering, we find that there are two innovative mode - ´passive mode´ and ´active mode´, we find that there are four innovative route - ´borrow-style´, ´ameliorate-style´, ´synthesize-style´, ´original-style´. Around innovative mode and innovative route, we do an in-depth thinking. Pointed out, it should be efforts to achieve active innovation, on the one hand, not satisfied with the status quo; on the other hand, it is necessary to pay attention to discovering new problems, as well as the future may be the emergence of new problems; and to know content of innovative route and using process, and to learn neatly using each a kind of innovative route.
