I'm a manager of a research lab at Adobe Systems, where I have been since early 2007. My research interests includetechnologies for building Network Services (ranging from methods for exploiting cloud computing infrastructure to services for mobile devices), methods for analyzing rich-media content collections (including semantic analysis and rich media search) as well as advancing the techniques for delivering rich-media experiences (for example, next-generation content delivery systems, multi-view experiences and advanced digital rights management techniques).
Prior to joining Adobe, I worked at Sun Microsystems (including most recently at Sun Labs) on professional IPTV, broadcast and internet streaming solutions as well as managing many other research projects. In my early days at Sun, I led the user interface toolkit (Xview) engineering team. I also worked at Xerox where I developed parts of the Star and ViewPoint systems. My outside interests include: hiking, camping, traveling, skiing, and helping out in my son’s Boy Scout Troop as a Scoutmaster. I received my degree in Information & Computer Science from University of California, Irvine.
