Pablo Santos Pablo is CEO of Codice Software, a privately held engineering company focused on the design and development of Software Configuration Management solutions. Bob Stout Thoughts and commentary an everything I'm interested in - i.e. C/C++, library programming, tools & utilities, tips and hints, Windows to Linux migration, software engineering, software management, embedded systems, DSP programming, OS/RTOS, metrology & instrumentation. Ignoring things that don't interest me - i.e. desktop applications, enterprise software, databases in general. Plus, when I get really frustrated, an occasional anti-Windows rant. Al Williams Al Williams has designed systems ranging from tiny embedded sensors to mainframe build systems and has written 20 books on a variety of hardware and software topics. Luckily, he's as comfortable writing a SQL query as he is soldering a surface mount RAM chip. Al goes under the hood in keeping up with the latest in embedded and real-time systems. Gregory V.
