Abstract :
A summary of the fundamental concepts of software engineering and of the process of software development leads to the formulation of a principle of uncertainty that applies, in general, to all computer application in the real world. A brief analysis of the implications of uncertainty and their relationship in software engineering follow. The views presented are reviewed in the context of the relevance of the issues raised to society as a whole
