  1. ACM/IEEE SWEngineering Code of Ethics and Professional Practice Page 625 and 633 in Text

  2. Preamble • SW engineers participate in the analysis, specification, design, development, maintenance, and testing of software systems • B/C of this SW Engineers have significant opportunities to do good or cause harm, to enable others to do good or cause harm, or to influence others to do good or cause harm

  3. Preamble (2) • SW Engineers shall adhere to the following Code of Ethics and Professional Practice • Code contains 8 principles • Each principle contains several clauses • The list of principles and clauses is not exhaustive • The clauses should not be viewed as separating the acceptable from the unacceptable for all situations

  4. Preamble (3) • The code is not a simple ethical algorithm that generates ethical decisions • In certain situations standards may be in tension w/ each other or w/ standards from other sources • These situations require the SW Engineer to use ethical judgement to act in a manner which is most consistent w/ the spirit of the Code of Ethics and Professional Practice

  5. Overview of Principles • The 8 Principles are based on relationships of the SW Engineer • 1) Public • 2) Client and Employer • 3) Product • 4) Judgment • 5) Management • 6) Profession • 7) Colleagues • 8) Self

  6. Introducing the Principles • Principle 1: Public • SW Engineers shall act consistently w/ the public interest.

In particular SW Engineers shall, as appropriate: • Which clauses relate to ethical scenarios we have discussed this semester? ( See page 636) • How do the clauses relate to our previous discussions and decisions?

  8. Principle 3: Product • SW Engineers shall ensure that their products and related modifications meet the highest professional standards possible.

Why? • Which of these clauses do you think you will encounter frequently? Why?

  9. Principle 4: Judgment • SW Engineers shall maintain integrity and independence in their professional judgment. In particular, SW Engineers shall, as appropriate • Create an ethical scenario based on 4.03 with multiple choice options

  10. Principle 5: Management • SW Engineering managers and leaders shall subscribe to and promote an ethical approach to the management of software development and maintenance. In particular, those managing or leading sw engineers shall, as appropriate • Define an ethical scenario based on clause 5.06

  11. Principle 6: Profession • SW Engineers shall advance the integrity and reputation of the profession consistent w/ the public interest. In particular, SW Engineers shall, as appropriate • Comment on clause 6.08 and clause 6.09 ( See page 638)
