Lead in Software?If U. S. software companies dont pay more attention to quality, they could kiss their business g
7、ood-bye. Both India and Brazil are developing a world-class software industry. Their weapon is quality and one of their jobs is to attract the top U. S. quality specialists whose voices are not listened to in their country.Already, of the worlds 12 software houses that have earned the highest rating
8、 in the world, seven are in India. Thats largely because they have used new methodologies rejected by American software specialists. For example, for decades, quality specialists, W Edwards Deming and J. M. Juran had urged U. S. software companies to change their attitudes to quality. But their qual
9、ity call mainly fell on deaf ears in the U. Sbut not in Japan. By the 1970s and 1980s. Japan was grabbing market share with better, cheaper products. They used Demings and Jurans ideas to bring down the cost of good quality to as little as 5% of total production costs. In U. S. factories, the cost o
10、f quality then was 10 times as high: 50%. In software, it still is.Watts S. Humphrey spent 27 years at IBM heading up software production and then quality assurance. But his advice was seldom paid attention to. He retired from IBM in 1986. In 1987, he worked out a system for assessing and improving
11、software quality. It has proved its value time and again. For example, in 1990 the cost of quality at Raytheon Electronics Systems was almost 60% of total software production costs. It fell to 15% in 1996 and has since further dropped to below 10%.Like Deming and Juran, Humphrey seems to be winning
12、more praises overseas than at home. The Indian government and several companies have just founded the WaRs Humphrey Software Quality Institute at the Software Technology Park in Chennai, India. Lets hope that U. S. 1 ead in software will not he eaten up by its quality problems.（分数：7.00）(1).The weapo

33、nes and answering machines. How much do these various devices consume? Not much; just a few watts, maybe 3 to 5 each.
