 Ward Cunningham, Microsoft: Ward Cunningham is an Architect in the Patterns & Practices group at Microsoft Corp. He founded of Cunningham & Cunningham, Inc., served as Director of R&D at Wyatt Software and as Principle Engineer in the Tektronix Computer Research Laboratory. Ward is well known for his contributions to the developing practice of object-oriented programming, the variation called Extreme Programming, and the communities hosted by his WikiWikiWeb. He is active with the Hillside Group and has served as program chair of the Pattern Languages of Programs conference which it sponsors. Ward created the CRC design method which helps teams find objects. Ward has written for PLoP, JOOP and OOPSLA on Patterns, Objects, CRC and related topics.
What do Design Patterns in a textbook, CRC Cards on a conference
room table and pages in a WikiWikiWeb site have in common? Each is
an artfully incomplete specification. Each asserts some fact or
decision while leaving room for complementary or evolving
ideas. Unlike some communication tools, they work well at that
delicious moment just before a design crystallizes. And, finally,
they all share a tangled history rooted in a HyperCard stack Ward
Cunningham wrote years ago. In this talk Ward unravels his
experience building tools for the not quite tangible. His reflection
stands as a motivation for the software practice of Refactoring
which itself enables the agile discipline of Extreme Programming.
