The Online Home Of Matt Pietrek


In the past, I've been an author, consultant and trainer, specializing in Microsoft Windows.   Now, I'm just enjoying life, and not taking on any new business.

I wrote the MSDN/MSJ "Under The Hood" column for eight years, and am a contributing editor.  I've also written for PC-Magazine, Dr. Dobb's, and Windows/DOS Developer's Journal.

I am the author of several books on low level Windows programming:

  • Windows 95 System Programming Secrets
  • Windows Internals
  • Undocumented Windows (coauthor)

From 1993 to 2001, I worked at NuMega/Compuware, where I was the lead architect for BoundsChecker.  I rejoined Compuware in 2002, and worked with both the BoundsChecker and Distributed Analyzer teams.  In March 2004, I joined Microsoft in the Visual Studio division.
