  1. Grady Booch On Software Engineering

    Developers · Technology · · posted by timothy · from the spoken-word dept. · 52 comments
    aebrain writes "Grady Booch is one of the Big Names in Software Engineering. If you use OOP or UML you're making use of his work. There's an interview with him on .NET that's interesting reading ('Language was once Key - Now it's Design'). Lots about the impedence mismatch between SQL and OOP, what the future holds re .NET and Java, and when UML modelling isn't appropriate."

    all-of-the-dot writes "Would you use an open-source implementation of the .NET Framework? Ximian's Mono project enables you to build .NET apps that run on Linux and Unix as well as Windows. Check out the story from .NET Magazine's interview with Miguel de Icaza, Ximian cofounder and CTO" Added to which, AirLace writes "The Mono project has just achieved full self-hosting on Linux. While the C# compiler, itself written in C#, has been able to compile itself since March, Mono can now compile its own complete set of class libraries too. This announcement closely follows the release of the Phonic media player, the first .NET application for the GNOME desktop."

    JEmLAC writes: "Fawcette's running an interesting piece (in conjuction with JavaOne) on a presentation by Gartner analyst Mark Driver concerning the emerging niches for Java/J2EE and .Net in the deployment of Web services. His take is that by 2005, they will be co-standards."

    Hoff writes: "Here is an interesting interview with Beck and Cooper pitting extreme programming vs. interactive design. Personally, I'm all about extreme programming. It's a novel approach to help get the management work with, and for, the software engineers."
