Abstract ========

Was sorgt dafür, dass Programme fehlschlagen? Wir haben die Fehlerdatenbanken von Microsoft durchforstet - und herausgefunden, dass bestimmte Programmeigenschaften die Wahrscheinlichkeit von späteren Fehlern signifikant steigern. Welche Eigenschaften das sind, und welche Konsequenzen man daraus ziehen sollte, erläutert dieser Vortrag.

The talk will be given in English.
