Intentional Software Tech Talk
An information session by: Paul Kwiatkowski, Chief Architect, Intentional Software
Monday, 10/20 6-7 pm, EE125 Food & drinks available
Conventional software platforms treat the user’s date as a secondary concern, focusing on relatively low-level services an application may or may not use. Intentional Software is developing a platform that turns this model inside-out. Application authors must focus on precisely capturing the user’s intent and contributions, and defining projections of the user’s work as interactive UI tailored for various tasks. By conforming to this model, an application automatically acquires a rich set of high-level functionality that few companies can afford to develop themselves. Intentional is creating innovative software that will transform the way organizations collaborate to create and share ideas. Come talk to us. intentsoft.com/careers
