Edward Nash Yourdon (April 30, 1944 - January 20, 2016) was an American software engineer, computer consultant, author and lecturer, and software engineering methodology pioneer. He was one of the lead developers of the structured analysis techniques of the 1970s and a co-developer of both the Yourdon/Whitehead method for object-oriented analysis/design in the late 1980s and the Coad/Yourdon methodology for object-oriented analysis/design in the 1990s. In 1997, Yourdon was inducted into the Computer Hall of Fame, along with such notables as Charles Babbage, James Martin, Grace Hopper, and Gerald Weinberg. In 1999 the Crosstalk: The Journal of Defense Software Engineering, named him one of the ten most influential people in the software field. He served as an internationally recognized expert witness and computer consultant specializing in project management, software engineering methodologies, and Web 2.0 development. The September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks are transforming information technology, leading to profound and permanent changes. In Byte Wars, legendary software engineering expert Ed Yourdon focuses on the immediate changes IT professionals are already encountering, and the long-term changes they must prepare for. From privacy issues to lean supply chains, "Death March," security, disaster recovery, and contingency planning projects, Yourdon addresses 9/11's impact on IT at every level - and outlines effective responses for executives, IT pros, and citizens alike.
