Outstanding Technical Achievement Award
IBM Watson Research, 2020
Define and develop Software Defined Data Governance in the Watson Data Platform
for automatic in-line enforcement of data privacy and use policies.
The result was an extensible framework for defining and orchestrating data transformations
in response to dynamic policy decisions on metadata-based policies, supporting a library
of data transforms that could be used to govern different types of data assets and
optimizations for scalability and performance.

Define support for Encrypted Container Images in the Container Cloud Ecosystem.
Outstanding Technical Achievement Award
IBM Watson Research, 2016
The Superclouds are entire clouds within and
across clouds. We have created a nested virtualization layer
called the Xen-Blanked that allows running your own hypervisor on
top of other Xen-based clouds (e.g., Amazon EC2). We have also
explored device virtualization abstractions that enable new ways
of wiring applications in a multi-cloud deployment.

Cyano is a social networking-based process co-creation platform. The award was given for
demonstrating how Cyano has enabled the acceleration of capturing and enrichment of over 550 IBM IT best
practices, with a community of over 12,000 subject matter experts. This project was awarded a ‘Research Accomplishment’ for demonstrating over $5M cost savings.
Outstanding Technical Achievement Award
IBM Watson Research, 2006
The Integrated Infrastructure Intelligence (i3) is a mashup and analytics framework for managing disparate infrastructure components. Developed as part of a First-of-a-Kind project with a large cable provider, i3 was used to monitor over 400,000 devices. A key component of i3 is an inference algorithm that uses historical failure patterns for discovering hidden topologies, even in the presence of noisy and incomplete data. i3 automatically identifies shared failure risk. When failure is detected, i3 tracks impacted users using an adaptive monitoring technique. This project was awarded a ‘Research Accomplishment’ for demonstrating over $10M revenue impact.
