Work

Grady Booch is best known for developing the Unified Modeling Language with Ivar Jacobson and James Rumbaugh. He also developed the Booch method of software development, which he presents in his book, Object Oriented Analysis and Design. He advises adding more classes to simplify complex code. Booch is also an advocate of design patterns. (For instance, he wrote the foreword to Design Patterns, an early and highly influential book in the field.) In the 1980s, Booch wrote one of the more popular books on programming in Ada.

Famous quotes containing the word work:

    The work of the miner has its unavoidable incidents of discomfort and danger, and these should not be increased by the neglect of the owners to provide every practicable safety appliance. Economies which involve a sacrifice of human life are intolerable.
    Benjamin Harrison (1833–1901)

    As I went about with my father when he collected taxes, I knew that when taxes were laid some one had to work to earn the money to pay them.
    Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)

    I don’t want to express alienation. It isn’t what I feel. I’m interested in various kinds of passionate engagement. All my work says be serious, be passionate, wake up.
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
