Mehdi Jazayeri, Ph.D., Professor
Mehdi Jazayeri is professor of computer science and heads the
Distributed Systems Group at the Technical University of Vienna. He is
interested in programming, software engineering, programming languages,
and distributed systems. He has worked at both technical and management
capacities at Hewlett-Packard Laboratories, Palo Alto, Synapse Computer
Corporation, Ridge Computers, and TRW Vidar. He spent two years in
Pisa,
Italy, to set up and manage a joint research project on parallel
systems
between Hewlett-Packard and the University of Pisa. He has been an
assistant
professor of computer science at the University of North Carolina at
Chapel
Hill, adjunct professor at Georgia Institute of Technology, University
of
Santa Clara, and San Jose State University. He was a Fulbright Scholar
at
the University of Helsinki (1979) and a visiting professor at the
Politecnico
di Milano (1988). He was a principal investigator on several European
projects
dealing with software architectures and advanced distributed systems.
Mehdi Jazayeri is a Senior Member of IEEE, a member of ACM, the
Austrian Computer Society, and the German Computer Society. He holds
degrees from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (SB, 1971) and Case
Western Reserve University (MS, 1973; PhD, 1975). He has been a
consultant to the US Government and to multinational companies in the
areas of software engineering, design, architecture, and
processes.
