Alexander L. Wolf (born 12 September 1956) is an American computer scientist known for his research in software engineering, distributed systems, and computer networking. He is credited, along with his collaborators, with introducing the modern study of software architecture,[2][3] content-based publish/subscribe messaging,[4] content-based networking, automated process discovery,[5] and the software deployment lifecycle. Wolf's 1985 Ph.D. dissertation[6] developed language features for expressing a module's import/export specifications and the notion of multiple interfaces for a type, both of which are now common in modern computer programming languages.
Wolf is Past President of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM)[7] and an ACM Fellow, IEEE Fellow, and BCS Chartered Fellow.
