محمد مسلم
اگست ۱۹۸۶ء کے شروع میں جناب محمد مسلم صاحب سابق ایڈیٹر روزنامہ ’’دعوت‘‘ دہلی کی وفات بھی ان کے جاننے والوں کے لیے ایک المناک سانحہ ہے، ان سے تقریباً پون صدی تک برابر ملتا رہا، ہر ملاقات میں ان کی شرافت اخلاق سے متاثر ہوا، ان کا نسبی تعلق سالار مسعود غازی سے تھا، ان کا خاندان دہلی میں آکر آباد ہوا، ۱۸۵۷ء میں ان کے خاندان والے انگریزوں کی نظروں میں معتوب ہوئے، تو وہ بھوپال منتقل ہوگئے، وہیں محمد مسلم صاحب کی پیدائش ہوئی، نوجوانی میں اپنے اسلامی جذبہ کی بنا پر خاکسار تحریک سے متاثر ہوئے، پھر جماعت اسلامی میں شریک ہوگئے، اس حلقہ میں اپنی سوجھ بوجھ کی وجہ سے بڑے قابل قدر سمجھے جانے لگے، جب روزنامۂ دعوت کے ایڈیٹر ہوئے تو صحافت نگاری میں اپنی اصابت رائے کی وجہ سے بڑی شہرت حاصل کی، بیرونی ممالک کے سفر پر بھی گئے، اور جب ڈاکٹر سید محمود سابق مملکت امور خارجہ حکومت ہند نے مجلس مشاورت قائم کی تو ان کو جناب محمد مسلم کی سیاسی بصیرت پر بڑا اعتماد رہا، انھوں نے بھی اس میں اپنی مخلصانہ سیاسی سرگرمیوں سے یہ ثابت کر دکھایا کہ وہ سچے مسلمان بھی ہیں اور سچے محب وطن بھی، اس کی تفریق کرنے کی ضرورت نہیں کہ وہ پہلے کیا ہیں؟ مسلمان یا ہندوستانی، یا ہندوستانی پہلے اور مسلمان بعد میں، سچا مسلمان ہی سچا محب وطن ہوسکتا ہے، ایک طویل علالت کے بعد دہلی میں وفات پائی، انھوں نے جو پاک دل، پاک باطن اور پاک نفس پایا تھا، ان کی بدولت امید ہے کہ وہ مغفرت الٰہی سے ضرور نوازے جائیں گے، آمین۔ (صباح الدین عبدالرحمن، ستمبر ۱۹۸۶ء)
Peace has great importance both for the individual and the communal life. Wherever peace turned into unrest, the tendencies of social violence, mental sickness and insecurity start developing amongst the people. Peace and harmony were the hallmark of the reign of the 2nd caliph, Haḍrat ‘Umar. He gave the best governing mechanism to the people of Arab, when they were not fully aware of rules & regulation of government. Though the empire was wide spread, he exercised a great sort of command & control on it. He took the responsibility of providing his subjects their basic needs: Food, Shelter, Education, Peace and Justice. This was not only an ideal system of its time but became the role model for the modern welfare state. Peace and harmony is as important for a state as food & air are for life. Allāh has strongly emphasized in The Holy Qur’ān" on two things i. E., "Disharmony & hunger" which should be eliminated from a society. Haḍrat ‘Umer during his reign of 10 years presented Islām as a religion of peace & harmony, a religion, which respects humanity, peacefully resolves disagreements and curtails misuse of power. He himself possessed the qualities of peace & harmony to an utmost level, which were the traits of our Holy Prophet’s (ﷺ) personality. It is important to follow the Khilāphah of Haḍrat ‘Umar to bring peace & justice in the society.
Personal Software Process (PSP) developed by Software Engineering Institute, Carnegie Mellon University (SEI-CMU) is for software engineers to better understand and improve their personal performance. It has been adopted for use in industry and academia and is also utilized for process improvement in twenty one key process areas of Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI). The main emphasis of the personal process is on requirement, design, code, test, and post-mortem phases of software development. Identification of risk at system structure level for estimation of cost and schedule are listed as the key focus of PSP. However, current implementation of PSP does not provide any process for risks, schedule and cost estimations at the architecture level. Neither does PSP body of knowledge provide any support for architectural knowledge area elements. Since the architecture influences all other phases of development life cycle and also has its proven benefits, its integration into the personal process should augment PSP with those additional benefits. Moreover an exploratory study performed within local Software Process Improvement (SPI) practitioners also revealed that process improvement is itself a problematic area in the local industry which is a cause for poor SPI, thus a local perspective is clearly established for CMMI based SPI participants in Pakistan. This work also is an effort to presents the support for identified issues at process engineer level SPI, by augmenting the personal software process, and adding architecture centric design keeping in view the local constrains thus further strengthening the PSP principles. The ACE architecture centric methods of Quality Attribute Workshop and Attribute Driven Design have been tailored such that the cost, time and effort impact on the engineer is minimal while the identified issue are addressed. The augmentation is performed in alignment SEI-CMU PSPBOK. The improved process is designed and executed, and the impact of improvement is validated. The improved process demonstrates positive impact of cost and schedule, induces early risk identification and reduces time to market by reducing rework and improving overall quality and satisfaction of not only the product but also the personal maturity and yield of the process engineer. Results of the case studies show that making the process architecture centric has significant advantages for personal process and overall software product quality.
