Keynote 1: Data, Data, Data: The Core of
Cloud/Services Computing!
Peter Chen, Ph.D.
Fellow of IEEE, ACM & AAAS
Professor, Louisiana State University (LSU) & Carnegie-Mellon
University (CMU)
Opening Session, 7/5/2011,
Tuesday
About
the Speaker:
Peter P. Chen
is Distinguished Chair Professor of Computer Science at Louisiana State
University and Visiting Professor at Carnegie-Mellon University. He is
also Honorary Distinguished Chair Professor of Service Sciences,
National Tsing Hua University, Taiwan. He received his Ph.D. from
Harvard and has taught at MIT (EECS dept., Management School, and
Engineering System Division), UCLA (Management School), and Harvard
(Computer Science).
He is internationally known for his development of the
Entity-Relationship (ER) Model, the foundation of many data modeling
and systems analysis methodologies, computer-aided software engineering
(CASE) tools, and repository systems. In the late 80’s, the ER
model
was adopted as the meta-model for ANSI standards on Information
Resource Dictionary Systems (IRDS). In the 90’s,
IBM’s Application
Development Cycle (AD/Cycle) framework and DB2 repository (RM/MVS) were
based on the ER model. Today, many CASE tools (such as Computer
Associates’ ERWIN, Oracle’s Designer, Sybase’s
PowerDesigner, and
Microsoft’s general drawing tool, Visio) support the ER
model. Also,
Microsoft’s ADO.NET’s Entity Framework provides software
developers the
programming and execution facilities for the ER model. His original ER
model paper is one of the most cited papers in IT/IS and was selected
as one of 38 papers in the book, Great papers in Computer Science (West
Publishing, 1996). The ER model has also influenced the recent
developments of the Object-Oriented (OO) analysis and design
methodologies, Semantic Web, and UML.
Dr. Chen is a Fellow of IEEE, ACM, AAAS, and a member of European
Academy of Sciences. He received many awards including ACM/AAAI
Allen
Newell Award, IEEE Harry Goode Award, Stevens Software Method Award,
Data Mgmt Admin. Assoc. Achievement Award, Data Mgmt Hall of Fame,
Software Eng. Society Transformative Award, and Pan Wen-Yuan
Outstanding Research Award. He was recognized as one of the 16
software pioneers in the book entitled Software Pioneers (Springer,
2002). Besides data modeling and software engineering, he has
made
contributions in system architecture, cyber security, terrorist
detection, data mining, and modeling/simulation.
Dr. Chen has served as consultant or advisor to many corporations and
government agencies. He has served as an Invited Expert in the
XML
Schema and XLink working groups of the World Wide Web Consortium
(W3C). He has also served as a member of the Advisory
Committee of
NSF CISE and the Air Force Scientific Advisory Board. He is
listed in
Who’s Who in America and Who’s Who in the World.
