Biography
[edit]Boehm studied for his undergraduate degree and University of Washington and Ph.D. at Cornell University.[5]. He taught at University of Washington and Rice University before moving to Xerox PARC. At PARC he wrote "Space Efficient Conservative Garbage Collection"[6], which has been described as one of the most influential papers by ACM SIGPLAN [7]. In 1996 he left PARC to work at SGI and subsequently worked at HP starting in 1999 until 2014. At HP he wrote the paper "Threads cannot be implemented as a library". He was responsible for the efforts to define threads and shared variables in C++11[8]</ref>.
In 2014 he started to work at Google.
