Philippe Kruchten is a professor of software engineering at
the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. He joined
academia in 2004, after a 30+-year career in industry, where he
worked mostly with large software-intensive systems design in the
domains of telecommunication, defense, aerospace, and
transportation. Some of his experience in software development is
embodied in the Rational Unified Process (RUP), whose development
he directed from 1995 until 2003. He’s the author or co-author of
Rational Unified Process: An Introduction (Addison-Wesley, 1998),
RUP Made Easy: A Practitioner’s Guide (Addison-Wesley, 2003), and
Software Engineering with UPEDU (Addison-Wesley, 2003), as well as
earlier books about programming in Pascal and Ada. He received a
doctoral degree in information systems (1986) and a mechanical
engineering degree (1975) from French engineering schools.
Robert Nord is a principal researcher at the Carnegie Mellon
University Software Engineering Institute, where he works to
develop and communicate effective methods and practices for agile
at scale, software architecture, and managing technical debt. He is
coauthor of the practitioner-oriented books Applied Software
Architecture (Addison-Wesley, 2000) and Documenting Software
Architectures: Views and Beyond (Addison-Wesley, 2011) and lectures
on architecture-centric approaches. He received a PhD in computer
science from Carnegie Mellon University and is a distinguished
member of the ACM.
Ipek Ozkaya is a principal researcher at the Carnegie Mellon
University Software Engineering Institute. Her primary work
includes developing techniques for improving software development
efficiency and system evolution, with an emphasis on software
architecture practices, software economics, agile development, and
managing technical debt in complex, large-scale software-intensive
systems. In addition, as part of her responsibilities, she works
with government and industry organizations to improve their
software architecture practices. She received a PhD in
Computational Design from Carnegie Mellon University. Ozkaya is a
senior member of IEEE and the 2019—2021 editor-in-chief of IEEE
Software magazine.
