Proprietor of <a href="http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?XprogrammingDotCom">XprogrammingDotCom</a> and <a href="http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?ArmatiesDotCom">ArmatiesDotCom</a>, Ron is an independent consultant, infamous for over three years of assistance on the C3 Payroll project at Chrysler (<a href="http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?ChryslerPayroll">ChryslerPayroll</a>). He was invited into the project by <a href="KentBeck.html">KentBeck</a>, who has (to date) not admitted his mistake in doing that. Ron has documented some of the <a href="ExtremeProgramming.html">ExtremeProgramming</a> practices used on C3 on his web site at <a href="http://www.armaties.com">http://www.armaties.com</a>. <a href="mailto:ronjeffries@acm.org">mailto:ronjeffries@acm.org</a>.
<p>Ron is available for XP-related speaking, training, and coaching, world-wide.
<p>Ron was <a href="http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?ChiefScientist">ChiefScientist</a> at <a href="http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?OakTreeSoftware">OakTreeSoftware</a> in Ann Arbor, Michigan. He has been Principal Scientist at Allen-Bradley Company, and Vice-President of R&D at Comshare. People have paid over half a billion dollars to use software Ron and his teams have written. Several of them have been quite satisfied. He hasn't got a dime of the money.
<p>Ron and his teams have written, among other systems, two commercial operating systems, three commercial relational database management systems, compilers for FORTRAN and Pascal, and a partridge in a pear tree. He has degrees in math and computer science, but of course those are from back when the integers were of finite cardinality and computers worked in decimal.
<p>Ron has been an avid reader of the how-to-do-it literature since the IBM 704. He keeps hoping he
will find the book that tells him how to do it. His fundamental orientation, if he has one, is that
good programs are simple, even if they do complex things.
(See Ron's <a href="http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?OakTreeDiagram">OakTreeDiagram</a> for an example of
artful simplification -- <a href="http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?WardCunningham">WardCunningham</a>)
Objects help with that, of course, and
patterns offer the same prospect. After all, if someone else has already done it, and will tell how,
it becomes simple for the next guy.
