From Slashdot:
A group of researchers, led by Carnegie Mellon researchers, have developed a new set of software tools that may revolutionize the way computer code is written. They said they have created a new breed of software called "SPIRAL" that automatically generates code for signal-processing applications - applications that help make computers run faster and cheaper. "What SPIRAL does is permit users to develop high quality code for new and old applications automatically, say in 10 minutes or less, saving time, money and aggravation for end users"
Whenever a new technology relating to software development comes out we see similar claims. Remember OOP, UML, MDA and Windows programming? A lot of programmers run for the hills to find new vocations since they will be put out of work.
The real result is the level of complexity expected in application development just increases by an order of magnitude.
