IJITSA Members Mourn the Passing of Distinguished International Researcher and Associate Journal Editor, Professor Rory O’Connor

By IGI Global on Jul 23, 2019
oconnor With heavy hearts, the International Journal of Information Technologies and Systems Approach (IJITSA) Editorial Team would like to share with the greater academic community the recent passing of the honorable Professor Rory O’Connor. Professor O’Connor was a distinguished international researcher in the topics of Information Technology and Information Systems, and an excellent collaborator and associate editor of IJITSA.

Rory V. O’Connor was a Professor of Software Engineering at Dublin City University (Ireland) where he served as the Head of the School of Computing. He was also a Senior Researcher with Lero, the Irish Software Research Centre. O’Connor was Ireland’s Head of Delegation to the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) for Software & Systems Engineering (ISO/IEC JCT1/ SC7). His research interests were centered on the processes and standards whereby software intensive systems are designed, implemented and managed. His focus was on researching methods, techniques, tools and standards for supporting the work of software project managers and software developers in relation to software process improvement, and the management of software development projects.

On behalf of IGI Global, we offer our utmost sympathies and condolences in the passing of Professor O’Connor. We are honored to have collaborated with such an esteemed research scholar.
