An enterprise perspective on technical debt
Proceedings of the 2nd Workshop on Managing Technical Debt, 2011Technical debt is a term that has been used to describe the increased cost of changing or maintaining a system due to expedient shortcuts taken during its development. Much of the research on technical debt has focused on decisions made by project architects and individual developers who choose to trade off short-term gain for a longer-term cost ...

To Pay or Not to Pay Technical Debt
IEEE Software, 2011Ward Cunningham coined the term technical debt as a metaphor for the trade-off between writing clean code at higher cost and delayed de livery, and writing messy code cheap and fast at the cost of higher maintenance efforts once it's shipped.

Estimating the breaking point for technical debt
2015 IEEE 7th International Workshop on Managing Technical Debt (MTD), 2015In classic economics, when borrowing an amount of money that causes a debt to the issuer, it is not usual to have interest which can become larger than the principal. In the context of technical debt however, accumulated debt in the form of interest can in some cases quickly sum up to an amount that at some point, becomes larger than the effort ...
