Draft
The key responsibilities for many programmers at UCLA are researching,
developing, and maintaining solutions which allow other employees of the
university to conduct their daily business.
Sometimes these solutions are local to the department or division and
other solutions have a much broader reach.
Programmers are asked to
solve problems ranging from simple to complex. Due to the sheer size of
the university, the physical location of programming groups, rapidly
changing technology, staff turnover, and the fact that many programmers
work in isolated surroundings, you can begin to understand that
communication between individuals and groups on campus is quite a
challenge. Lack of communication leads to duplicated work, longer than
expected development time, incompatible systems, and longer learning curves.
This site will attempt to:
- foster communication between programmers
- encourage sharing of code
- be a self-documenting repository of programming information, techniques and FAQs
- bring UCLA programmers up to a standard with regards to documentation,
design methodology, security, etc.
