I work for Red Hat, where I lead JBoss technical direction and research/development. Prior to this I was SOA Technical Development Manager and Director of Standards. I was Chief Architect and co-founder at Arjuna Technologies, an HP spin-off (where I was a Distinguished Engineer). I've been working in the area of reliable distributed systems since the mid-80's. My PhD was on fault-tolerant distributed systems, replication and transactions. I'm also a Professor at Newcastle University and Lyon.

Classic C++ textbook
Every now and again I have to go through my cache of books and box some of them up for storage. This time it was some of my old text books from university, but while going through the process I went through all of my C++ related books. One of the best I've ever read is Barton and Nackman. I got this book just after it came out (I think I got it just after visiting Graeme at Transarc.) It's a wonderful book and reading the Amazon comments afterwards it's good to see that I'm not alone in thinking that. If you're a C++ programmer then you should definitely check it out.
