He has worked for <a data-external=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ericsson.com\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ericsson<\/a>, been involved in two startups, and done a random assortment of contract work.

He spent way too much time <a data-external=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.commodore.ca\/gallery\/magazines\/gazette\/Compute-Gazette-Issue-80.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">reverse-engineering the firmware of a disk drive<\/a> once. He used punch cards <em>at Tennessee Tech<\/em> one summer while in high school. He&#8217;s old. Stacy is a Tennessee native and grew up on a working farm in Manchester, Tennessee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stacy has led the writing of two books: <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Cleanroom-Software-Engineering-Technology-Process\/dp\/B000REU39C\" target=\"_blank\">one on software engineering<\/a> and <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Seven-Deadliest-Network-Attacks-Syngress-ebook\/dp\/B003ZDNYY8\" target=\"_blank\">one on security<\/a>.  The first did better than the second, but the second was more fun, though very uneven (we all wrote different chapters on deadline).  He&#8217;s also written a suspiciously well-cited <a href=\"https:\/\/library.eecs.utk.edu\/files\/ut-cs-03-505-01.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">discourse on Markov chain computations<\/a> for some reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stacy was awarded an MS (1995) and Ph.D. (1996) in computer science from the University of Tennessee at Knoxville.
