L'autore

Robert Cowham

Robert Cowham is from a software development background with experience in roles from programming to testing and project management. He came across Perforce as a user in the early days of the company when there were only four employees. He subsequently became one of the two pre-qualified Perforce Consulting Partners, and became a Perforce Certified Trainer as soon as that program was implemented. Since then he has consulted for many companies and organizations, and trained thousands of users around the globe, from California to Japan, including giving training courses in German, French, and Italian.

He has also written a number of integrations with Perforce. This includes P4OFC, which integrates with Microsoft Office, and is still provided as an officially-supported public download. APIs developed by him include P4COM, a COM based API for use on Windows, and P4Python which he subsequently handed over to Perforce to support. He has also written various full history migration tools for customers to get them into Perforce.

He has long had an interest in all aspects of configuration management and was for several years a coauthor with Brad Appleton and Steve Berczuk of the Agile SCM column in the online CM Journal. He was Chair of the specialist group for Change, Configuration and Release Management of the British Computer Society for seven years, organizing many events and conferences, and is still active on the committee. He regularly speaks at industry events.

As Services Director for Square Mile Systems, Robert now also works with configuration management of infrastructure and data centers, applying the same principles to the physical world.

Robert has practiced the Japanese martial art of Aikido for over 20 years, and runs a dojo near his home in London. He has even managed to combine his interests with a well-received presentation on "Black belt SCM techniques," including physical demonstrations of the principles involved!
