Booch joining the Software Technology Department at the IBM Thomas J. Watson Research Center as Chief Scientist for Software Engineering

Some interesting posts these days over at Booch’s blog (Handbook of Software Architecture). For example see the March 10 post, Rational Machines, which at end includes a great quote of the day: Some day, on the corporate balance sheet, there will be an entry which reads, ‘Information’; for in most cases, the information is more valuable than the hardware which processes it. — Grace Murray Hopper.

As you read towards present day you will encounter the March 18 post, Living A Life of Ands, which includes a very different, real and enjoyable self-description by Grady. In the post he also shares awareness that he is joining the Software Technology Department at the IBM Thomas J. Watson Research Center as Chief Scientist for Software Engineering.

All the best Grady; I look forward to eventually hearing of a publish date for your much anticipated new book.
