Author Grady Booch provides an audio recording of his On Computing column, in which he discusses how the next generation of software-intensive systems will be taught instead of programmed. This poses considerable pragmatic challenges in how we develop, deliver, and evolve them.

Author Grady Booch provides an audio recording of his On Computing column, in which he discusses how computing amplifies the actions of governments, but can also temper its behavior by enabling mechanisms for private communication as well as for open and transparent communication by the people of a nation. Similarly, governments can help focus the artifacts of computing to the health and happiness of its citizens, but temper it as well.

Author Grady Booch provides an audio recording of his On Computing column, in which he discusses how developing software-intensive systems is like many other things, but it’s also like no other thing. And for the general public, how software is made remains a mystery. Subscribe to the On Computing podcast on iTunes at https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/ieee-softwares-on-computing.

Author Grady Booch provides an audio recording of his On Computing column, in which he discusses how parallels exist between the Industrial Revolution and our current computing revolution regarding risk, transparency, and responsibility. Grady then examines some of these parallels, their implications for society, and individual developer's responsibilities.

Author Grady Booch provides an audio recording of his On Computing column, in which he discusses how although we live in a world of unprecedented complexity and astonishing possibility, we should never forget our past, for those who came before us in computing enabled those possibilities.

Author Grady Booch provides an audio recording of his On Computing column, in which he discusses how even in the face of the tumultuous changes brought about by computing, the threads that define our very humanity still persist and bring a poignant texture to a fully digital life.

Author Grady Booch provides an audio recording of his On Computing column, in which he discusses how much a functioning member of society today should know about computing.
