Dr. E. Michael Maximilien (aka “max”)

I work for IBM Research as a research staff member.  See my résumé for details.


I am active in various technical communities inside and outside of IBM.  See my blog for recent activities, thoughts, and discussions.


My primary research interest is simply web computing.  In particular, I am keenly interested in languages, systems, methods, practices, and techniques that make web computing easier and help make the web a trustable, social, and programmable platform and substrate for business and individuals.
