The software crisis
A subject the papers are about. The loosest grouping, and the one to reach for last.
The 1968 Garmisch and 1969 Rome reports that named the software crisis, and the later accounts of them. Collects the primary conference records together with participants' retrospectives. Membership requires the work to be of or about those two meetings, not merely to discuss software engineering's difficulties.
