Welcome to STISE!!

Advancing the state of systems thinking practice in software engineering

Our primary purpose is to communicate an awareness and understanding of why systems thinking is important to the software industry, and how this field of study can be used.

Our goals are to:

  1. Increase awareness of how systems thinking can be used in the software engineering field
  2. Demonstrate how systems thinking can be a valuable way of perceiving current situations, thinking about how systems work, and solving perplexing problems in software engineering
  3. Advance research in the application of systems thinking and disseminate results of software field studies
  4. Increase the use of systems thinking tools as a way to advance the state of software engineering practice
