Greg Young speaking tonight at the Montreal .NET Community
Greg Young will be speaking tonight at the Montreal .NET Community.
Everything you always want to know about architecture - But were afraid to ask
Software architecture is about modeling and applying heuristics to simplify the system to build. This presentation provides an introduction to software architecture as well as a roadmap for professional developers to evolve from coder to architect. We will discuss the types of problems software architects try to solve while respecting the economics of the software world. At the end of this presentation, you will understand why a BIG BALL OF MUD, the most frequently deployed software architecture, can be a good architectural choice.
Greg Young is co-founder and CTO of IMIS, a stock market analytics firm in Vancouver BC. With over 10 years of varied experience in computer science from embedded operating systems to business systems and everything in between, he brings a pragmatic and often times unusual viewpoint to discussions.
In his spare time you can often find Greg on experts-exchange.com where he runs the .NET section of the site, writing articles for InfoQ.com, speaking at local .NET groups throughout the south eastern US and now the pacific northwest, or floating upside down through rapids in his kayak.
