Aslam Khan is an architect and coach working out of South Africa.  He is part of factor10; a team software architects that help teams write software better.  With more than 18 years experience, he has learned that design is more valuable than technology, and pragmatic decisions are more valuable than rules.  He takes the position that architects should be able to build what they draw and that the only truthful implementation of an architecture is the code that gets executed.  He is particularly passionate about creating simple solutions for complex problems, and part of that passion pushes him to try to explain architecture and software development as simply as possible.  Aslam believes that good code can only be produced when there is a good balance between social and technical skills of everyone on a team.
