Subject matter expert in Information management, XML, XML query languages

I am Executive Director of Dependable Distributed Computing Research, a department of principal investigators whose expertise includes security, formal modeling, and reliability of networks and distributed systems. 

My own research sits at the juncture of database systems and programming languages and focuses on domain-specific languages for data management in centralized and distributed environments.  I have co-edited several World-Wide Web Consortium recommendations on XML technologies that have become industry standards.

Currently, I am on the board of directors of the Computing Research Association.  I am also a board member of MentorNet, an e-mentoring program for students in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.  I am also past Secretary/Treasurer of ACM SIGMOD and a past associate editor of ACM Transactions on Database Systems.
