SERC Collaborator Receives Simon Ramo Medal
Barry Boehm is the 2010 IEEE Simon Ramo Medal winner. The honor was established by the IEEE Board of Directors in 1982 for exceptional achievement in systems engineering and systems science. Boehm’s award was “for leadership in and innovative solutions to the integration of systems engineering and software engineering.”
Boehm, USC's TRW Professor of Software Engineering, is a member of the National Academy of Engineering, a Fellow of the primary societies in computing (ACM), aerospace (AIAA), electronics (IEEE) and systems engineering (INCOSE). He founded USC’s Center for Software and Systems Engineering in 1993, expanding it subsequently to incorporate the systems analysis work of Eberhardt Rechtin.
