The Process of Software Architecting

Acknowledgments

Two pivotal figures were involved as this book was written. The first is Grady Booch, who not only sowed the seed from which this book grew, but also kindly wrote the foreword, provided detailed review comments, and was supportive throughout. The second is Philippe Kruchten, who never ceases to amaze with his anecdotes and experience. Again, Philippe was supportive throughout by providing many suggestions, acting as an interviewee and reviewer, and providing introductions to several architects to whom we spoke in the course of writing this book.

We would also like to thank Brad Appleton, Dave Braines, Alan Brown, Mark Dickson, Celso Gonzalez, Holger Heuss, Bobby Higgins, Rich Hilliard, Kelli Houston, Brad Jackson, Robert ...
