Abstract:
This new version of my 1983 paper suggests the goals you might have for your system—Simple, Timely, Efficient, Adaptable, Dependable, Yummy (STEADY)—and effective techniques for achieving them—Approximate, Incremental, Divide & Conquer (AID). It gives a few principles for system design that are more than just hints, and many examples of how to apply the hints and principles.
