文摘Grady Booch因在软件架构(software architecture)、建模(modeling)和软件工程过程(software engineeringprocess)方面的开创性工作而闻名于世。自1980年Rational软件公司创立以来,他一直拉任该公司的首席科学家。Grady是统一建模语言(UML)最早的开发者之一。他是六本计算机科学畅销书的作者,其著作包括《The Unified ModelingLanguage User Guide》(Addison-Wesley,1999)、具有开创意义的《Object-oriented Analysis and Design with Applications》(Addison-Wesley,1994)。MSDN Magazine最近抓信Grady,请他谈谈Microsoft.NET和Visual Studio.NET对于软件开发世界的影响。
