Honoring Barry Boehm

Barry Boehm is an undisputed giant in the field of software engineering. His work has been instrumental in many advancements in the field. Perhaps his most lasting contribution is his modelling of the economics of software engineering. Boehm’s work has been an inspiration for our team and many others like us for many years. The International Conference on Software Engineering will be honoring Mr. Boehm in Minneapolis.

From the conference overview :

Many people have contributed to the establishment and growth of the field of Software Engineering. Not many people, however, have consistently made significant contributions over a 40-year time period and earned respect across academia, industry, and government audiences. Barry Boehm’s work has impacted Software Engineering tremendously, and he continues to be very active. However, Barry is approaching semi-retirement, and the purpose of this symposium is to highlight the legacy of Barry through the gathering of colleagues, friends, and members of the Software Engineering community.
