Bob Grady

Software development, project management, and process improvement, all backed up with software metrics, were key professional interests during Bob Grady's 28-year career at Hewlett-Packard Co. He managed projects in the areas of compilers, measurement and control systems, firmware, and manufacturing automation and information systems, and consulted extensively in many HP divisions over a wide range of software and business opportunities. He started HP's Corporate Software Engineering Lab in 1983, and while he managed it during the period of 1983-1986, he and Deborah Caswell established and led the company-wide software metrics program in HP. Since retiring, Bob has continued to consult on a limited basis with a particular continuing interest in defect root-cause analysis. He is a member of the IEEE Computer Society, and he has written and coauthored numerous papers and articles on software subjects, including the books Software Metrics: Establishing a Company-Wide Program (1987), Practical Software Metrics for Project Management and Process Improvement (1992), and Successful Software Process Improvement (1997), all published by Prentice-Hall. A native of Chicago, Illinois, he received his B.S.E.E. from MIT in 1965 and his M.S.E.E. from Stanford in 1969. Prior to joining HP, he worked for Ford Aerospace Corp.
