In preparation for writing curriculum material on technical communication,
we are looking for references that bridge software development and technical 
communication. Here are a couple of examples of the kind of thing we're
after:

Richard Walton & Diane Balestri. "Writing as a Design Discipline: Exploring
the Relationship Between Composition and Programming." Machine-Mediated
Learning, vol.2, no.1 & 2, 1987, pp.47-65.

John Lehman. "Program Design and Rhetoric." IEEE Software, May 1986, pp.71-73

Please note: we're not only interested in design issues but in the many
possible connections between software development and the process of 
composing-- including process models, planning, writing, testing, etc...

If you know of any similar or related materials that might be useful for us,
we'd be grateful if you'd send e-mail to ll@sei.cmu.edu.                  

Thanks in advance.
