The Martian Principles for Successful Enterprise Systems (PDF)

Ronald Mak was a senior computer scientist and software
architect at the NASA Ames Research Center. He was the architect
and lead developer of the middleware for the Collaborative
Information Portal, an important enterprise software system that is
a part of NASA's ongoing and highly successful Mars
Exploration Rover mission. Mission managers, scientists, and
engineers continue to use CIP--after over two years of
continuous operation, it has an uptime record of better than 99.9
percent.

Working as a key member of the CIP development teamvalidated the
principles that Ron describes in this book.Ron was also the
architect and lead developer of an enterprise class information
portal for NASA's International Space Station and the future
Crew Exploration Vehicle.

Prior to joining NASA, Ron had over 15 years of experience
designing and developing enterprise systems using several
programming languages and technologies on various platforms.

Most of these systems were highly successful, but therewere a few
failures, too. The Martian principles are derivedfrom these
experiences.

Ron held an academic appointment with the University of California
at Santa Cruz, and he worked on contract to NASAAmes. He earned his
B.S. degree with distinction in the Mathematical Sciences and his
M.S. degree in Computer Science from Stanford University.

He has written three previous books on computer science, Java
Number Cruncher, the Java Programmer's Guide to Numerical
Computing (Prentice Hall PTR, 2003), Writing Compilers and
Interpreters, C++ Edition (Wiley, 1996), and Writing
Compilers and Interpreters, a Practical Approach (Wiley, 1991).
He recently wrote several papers about CIP for refereed journals.
He continues to hone his exposition of the Martian principles by
giving presentations to both industry and academic audiences.

Ron recently co-founded and is the CTO of Willard & Lowe
Systems, Inc. (www.willardlowe.com) which develops
