Autorenporträt
Robert L. Glass meandered the halls of computing and software for over 45 years, beginning in 1954. He is proud to say he was not only a software pioneer but a space applications pioneer, having spent his early years doing software applications and system software for U.S. aerospace companies. After a transition into academic life, he was on the faculty of the pioneering software engineering graduate program at Seattle University and spent a year trying to fit a practitioner's background and knowledge into the academic-oriented Software Engineering Institute. His proudest moments were receiving an honorary PhD from Linkoping University in Sweden in 1995 and being named an ACM Fellow in 1999.
