Dependence on computers has intensified the division of labor within engineering. For example, civil engineers designing a flood control system have to rely on information and programs obtained from systems analysts and implemented by computer programmers
Suppose the systems analysts refuse to assume any moral or legal responsibility for the safety of the people affected by the flood control plans, arguing that they are merely providing tools whose use is entirely up to the engineers. Should the civil engineers be held accountable for any harm caused by poor computer programs? Presumably their accountability does extend to errors resulting from their own inadequate specifications that they supply to the computer experts. Yet should not the engineers also be expected to contract with computer specialists who agree to be partially accountable for the end-use effects of their programs?
