The first book I picked on quality was “Managing the Software Process”. The reason I picked it up at my company’s library was that it had the maximum number of copies in the quality section. I did not know then that this book was by Watts Humphrey who was the founder of the software process program at the SEI. Recipient of the National Medal of Technology who people remember because of the simple way explaining the concepts.

Humphrey’s work at Software Engineering Institute (SEI) at Carnegie Mellon University later led to development of the Capability Maturity Model(SEI-CMM)
Watts Humphrey died few days back at his home in Sarasota, Florida. He was fighting cancer.
