ABSTRACT
The main challenge of next years is to allow users of software systems, who are non-professional software developers, to create, modify or extend software artefacts. In this panel we want to discuss with the CHI community the key aspects in the area of End User Development and an associated research agenda, which should be then proposed to the main research agencies, such as NSF and EU ICT.

Invited research overview: end-user programming
CHI EA '06: CHI '06 Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing SystemsIn the past few decades there has been considerable work on empowering end users to be able to write their own programs, and as a result, users are indeed doing so. In fact, we estimate that over 12 million people in American workplaces would say that ...
The next step: from end-user programming to end-user software engineering
CHI EA '06: CHI '06 Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing SystemsIs it possible to bring the benefits of rigorous software engineering methodologies to end users? End users create software when they use spreadsheet systems, web authoring tools and graphical languages, when they write educational simulations, ...
