I'm all for shifting CS education away from easily outsourced commodity skills, but Dr. Dewar goes beyond that and argues that safety-critical embedded systems is where a CS education should be focusing. I'm sure if you asked a CEO of another tech company with a different technology focus you'd get a completely different take on what a CS department should be instilling into its students. Dewar is just another special interest lobbying for changes that will benefit his own industry.
