Abstract
The backlog of demand for applications software is exceeding the productivity of programmers using conventional procedural languages. One approach to solving this problem is increasing programmer productivity through the use of automatic software generation systems. This paper presents the background of the software crunch, the reasons conventional programming languages are not expected to meet it, and the possibility of the state of the art being adequate to support a graduate course in automatic software generation.
