Abstract
In this paper, we identify and analyze a set of characteristics that increasinglydistinguish today’s complex software systems from "traditional" ones. Several examples indifferent areas show that these characteristics are not limited to a few application domains but arewidespread. Then, we discuss how these characteristics are likely to impact dramatically the veryway software systems are modeled and engineered. In particular, we appear to be on the edge of aradical shift of paradigm, about to change our very attitudes in software systems modeling andengineering.
