Ivar will be giving the presentation "What They
Don't Teach You About Software at School: Be Smart."
Abstract: Software development is complex. There
is a smart way of doing things and there are not so smart
ways of doing things. In this talk, Ivar presents a number
of smart cases to demonstrate how smart can be applied when
working with people, teams, projects, requirements,
architecture, modeling, documentation, testing, process, and
more.
Bio: Dr. Ivar Jacobson is a father of components
and component architecture, use cases, the Unified Modeling
Language and the Rational Unified Process. He has
contributed to modern business modeling and aspect-oriented
software development. However, all this is history. Lately
he has been working on how to deal with methods and tools in
a super-light and agile way. He has developed a practice
concept that is now being adopted by both developers and
tool vendors. Now he is one of the leaders of a worldwide
network Semat, which has agreed to revolutionize software
development. He is also the principal author of six
influential and best-selling books. Ivar Jacobson is the
chairman of Ivar Jacobson International which has
subsidiaries in the US, UK, The Netherlands, China,
