    Bio: Dr. Stefan G Hild is Senior Manager of the Responsive Enterprise Solutions department, IBM Research Division (Yorktown Heights, NY), where his team is engaged in developing infrastructure components for sensor networks, from messaging, data aggregation, to business process integration. He held positions at the IBM Scientific Center, Heidelberg, Germany, and at the IBM Hursley Development Laboratory, England, before joining the IBM Research Division in 1997 in Zurich, Switzerland, where he worked on mobile internet technologies. After a one-year assignment in the IBM TJ Watson Research Center in New York he re-joined the laboratory in Zurich in the autumn of 2001 to manage the e-business research group. In 2003, Stefan returned to New York, assuming his present assignment. Stefan has presented at and published in numerous conferences, journals and trade magazines. He holds doctorate and undergraduate degrees in computer science from the University of Cambridge, England, and the University of London, respectively.
