Описание: Frederick Phillips Brooks Jr. (1931–2022) was an American software engineer, and computer scientist, best known for managing the development of IBM's System/360 family of computers and the OS/360 software support package, then later writing candidly about those experiences in his seminal book The Mythical Man-Month. In 1976, Brooks was elected to the National Academy of Engineering for "contributions to computer system design and the development of academic programs in computer sciences". Brooks received many awards, including the National Medal of Technology in 1985 and the Turing Award in 1999. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fred_Brooks “Perhaps the most pertinent distinction is that between scientific and engineering disciplines. That distinction lies not so much in the activities of the practitioners as in their purposes. A high-energy physicist may easily spend most of his time building his apparatus; a spacecraft engineer may easily spend most of his time studying the behavior of materials in vacuum. Nevertheless, the scientist builds in order to study; the engineer studies in order to build.” quoted from: Brooks, Fred (1996). "The computer scientist as toolsmith II". Communications of the ACM. Association for Computing Machinery. 39 (3): 61–68. DOI: 10.1145/227234.227243 CC licensed portrait of Fred Brooks speaking in Berlin in 2007 via Wikimedia Commons w.wiki/77Gi
