About Me
I work to position Data and AI at the core of business and operations aiming to deliver value to customers and society.
I am an IBM Data & AI Solution Architect and Master Inventor working on strategic projects around AI Factory, Data Fabric, Data Intelligence, Trustworthy AI, and Green AI.
I have 25+ years mixed industry-academic experience previously working as Director of Research with Samsung, Research Lead with IBM Research, Honorary Senior Fellow, Research Fellow at UniMelb, and Invited Professor at Korea University, and others.
I hold a PhD in Computer Sciences obtained in 2009 with thesis around Distributed AI and Mobile Computing.
Academic & Research
I believe that advancing AI demands innovation around information flows, solution architectures, and insight generation, along with new AI-centric operational models.
The integrating theme of my research is the construction of more adaptive, distributed, and intelligent information systems, able to support decision-making in complex settings. Earlier on, I focused on research and development around multi-agent systems and agent technology, which views a distributed system in terms of interacting autonomous software entities. My interest evolved into the design of reasoning machinery for systems that support complex collaborative behaviors, including topics like:
-
Distributed AI
-
Collaborative Intelligence
-
Social Computing
