While at MITRE, I have co-supervised students at North Eastern, Cornell, CMU, and University of Rhode Island; and students at the University of Milano. After I finished my PhD in UK until I moved to the US, I taught Math for High School Students.
Professional Teaching (1990 – present)
Between 1990 and 2000 I have been an instructor at the MITRE Institute giving tutorials in data management to MITRE staff as well as sponsors (in Bedford, DC, Fort Monmouth, San Antonio, San Diego, Colorado Springs, and Stuttgart). Topics include database security, database systems evolution and interoperation, heterogeneous database integration, distributed databases, object databases, real-time databases, data warehousing and mining. Since September 1998, I am an instructor for AFCEA Educational Foundation teaching a course on “data management, information management and knowledge management” and another course on ”data mining and its applications to counter-terrorism.” I also prepared lecture notes for Harcourt higher education for IT2555 for a web course in data mining.
Main Specialty Areas:
Information Security (data security, web security, information assurance), Data Management and Data Mining (interoperability, geospatial data, web mining), Knowledge Management and Semantic Web.
Recent Focus:
At the University of Texas at Dallas, my focus is on Assured Information Sharing, Secure Geospatial Data Management and Surveillance/Biometrics. While working at NSF my focus was on Cyber Security, Privacy, Data Mining for Counter-terrorism: Several keynote and featured presentations on data mining for security at the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, The United Nations, Cambridge University, Stanford University (panel at Stanford Database Workshop), Oxford University (COMPSAC Luncheon address), National Academy of Sciences, SIAM Data Mining Conference, IEEE ICTAI Conference, American Association of Colleges and Universities, among others.
Research Statement:
My early research was on theory of computation and in particular recursion theory. This research was carried out as visiting professor at the New Mexico Institute of Technology and at the University of Minnesota for 3 years. It resulted in several journal publications including in the Journal of Computer and Systems Sciences. Since 1985 my research has focused on secure database systems and later on real-time objects. This research was carried out initially at Honeywell Inc as well as at the University of Minnesota as adjunct professor of computer science for over 4 years. I continued with this research at the MITRE Corporation since 1989. Significant contributions include Design and development of Lock Data Views Relational Database System, Design and development of secure distributed database system, Design and development of techniques to handle the Inference problem, Design of NTML: a Non monotonic Logic for Secure Data and Knowledge Based Systems, Design and development of secure multimedia and object systems, and the Design and development of an object-based real-time data manager and middleware for next generation real-time command and control systems. I also used my background in theory and proved that the inference problem was unsolvable. This work has been quoted by Dr. John Campbell of NSA as the significant development in database security in 1990. My research in the early 2000 was on secure semantic web, privacy constraint processing and secure sensor information management. My main research now is focusing in three major areas: Assured Information Sharing; Secure Geospatial Data Management; Surveillance/Identity Assurance. My research in secure database systems was transferred to Army’s Maneuver Control System. My research in distributed real-time object systems was transferred to the AWACS program. My research at Honeywell, University of Minnesota and MITRE has resulted in several publications including in IEEE Transactions of Knowledge and Data Engineering, IEEE Transactions of Software Engineering, IEEE Transactions of Parallel and Distributed Systems, IEEE Computer, IEEE Network, ACM OOPSLA, IEEE Data Engineering, and VLDB Conferences. My work on secure databases has resulted in 3 US patents.
Research Contracts/Grants
At MITRE I initiated and lead several research projects for various sponsors including Navy (secure distributed databases, secure objects, inference problem/NTML), Army (inference problem, security constraint processing), Air Force (secure distributed databases and real-time databases/middleware), and National Security Agency (secure federated databases, designing secure systems and applications). Each project that I led consisted of about 3 – 5 staff, a third with PhDs and half with MS degrees; also included students from CMU, Cornell, University of Rhode Island and North Eastern University. I was also a mentor to 2 junior research staff at NSA for 2 years (at the request of the chief, R23) and conducted joint research on designing secure applications and semantic data models for secure databases. I currently have grants from the Air Force, Raytheon, NSF and from the Texas Enterprise Funds at the University of Texas at Dallas.
Research Management:
At the University of Texas at Dallas I am supervising many PhD and MS students. Prior to that, as department head at MITRE, I managed around 28 staff for 4 years (1995-1999). About a third had PhDs and half with Masters degrees. Research in my department focused in four areas: Multimedia data management, Data Mining, Interoperable databases and Distributed objects, while security cuts across all areas. We also supported operational systems in distributed databases. Total budget for department was approx $5M/yr. I also managed MITRE's internal research in information management for 3 years. Total budget for the initiative was approx $4M/yr. I managed fifteen academic research projects for CIA for 6 years. Total budget was approx. 3m/yr. While a department manager I started writing books for technical managers on data management and data mining and have completed 6 books. Between 1999 and 2001 I was chief scientist/engineer in data management and was responsible for the research as well as providing research directions for about 200 staff at MITRE’s Air Force Center. At UTD I am mentoring 2 associate professors and 3 assistant professors and we work as a team.

Technical: My 16 years experience at MITRE has given me the opportunity to work on research, development and technology transfer projects. I have been working for a number of sponsors including the Air Force, Navy, Army, NSA, CIA and IRS. I have worked with not only researchers and defense contractors, but also with Fortune 500 corporations in information technology. A summary of my technical accomplishments is listed below.
Information Security: Between January 1989 and August 1992, my work focussed entirely on information security. I initiated and lead various database and object security projects for the Army, Navy, Air Force, and the National Security Agency. The topics included secure distributed/federated database management, inference problem, secure multimedia/object-oriented data management, and secure client-server computing. I design and supervised the implementation of a prototype secure distributed database system that connected database systems in Bedford MA, McLean VA, and Fort Monmouth NJ. This was the first secure distributed database system prototype to be developed. I also designed centralized and distributed database inference controllers and supervised the implementation of these systems. In addition, I designed a secure object/multimedia database system and supervised the implementation of this system. Other contributions include the proof of the unsolvability of the inference problem, use of conceptual structures to designing secure database applications and the development of a logic for secure data and knowledge base management systems. Since August 1992 I have been working part-time on information security. My focus has been on the inference problem, object security, and privacy issues for data mining. I led a team project to investigate security for distributed object systems and this work had an impact on the security standards for the Object Management Group. I provided technical direction to DoD projects in database security between March 1991 and September 1996 and was a consultant to NSA and mentored junior staff at NSA. Between 1996 and 2001 I continued to work in information security by providing directions on the Inference problem to the Air Force and also examine security issues for XML and web information systems.
Data Management, Real-time Systems and Object Technology: My work in data management at MITRE began around August 1992. Since then I have initiated and lead projects in real-time database management and distributed object management for evolvable real-time command and control systems, massive multimedia data management for Intelligence applications, and distributed object management for heterogeneous database integration. In addition I have initiated and contributed to projects in data mining and warehousing. As part of my work, I have provided directions in data management to the Department of Defense and the Intelligence Community. In particular, between October 1993 and March 1999, I was the lead in providing technology directions for the Intelligence Community initiative on Massive Digital Data Systems. Based on results from this effort, together with the CIA sponsor we began discussions with DARPA on data mining in December 1997 and these discussions eventually led to the EELD program at DARPA. Also between October 1993 and September 1999 I have been part of a team providing directions for next generation real-time data management and object systems for the AWACS project. For this work I received the MITRE program achievement award in 1997. For the work in data mining and distributed objects, I received two MITRE Director awards in 1997.
Consulting in Information Technology (IRS): Between January 1999 and September 2001 I worked on projects for the Internal Revenue Service in interviewing various Fortune 500 corporations on their research and development tax credits and writing reports on these interviews for the sponsor. This work utilized my extensive experience in computer science and information technology. This work has also enabled me to get an excellent understanding of the internal details of databases, ERP, and e-commerce software. Initially my work focussed on banking and financial industries, later I also worked on other industries such as Telecommunications. Between May 2000 and July 2001, I have been working with a major Fortune 100 corporation and the IRS jointly to determine the products that would qualify for research credit. For this effort, I had to review numerous products that this corporation worked on during FY00 and this has made me intimately familiar with the commercial products of a major corporation in the US in information technology. This work was reported in the Wall Street Journal in December 2000 and also claimed by IRS as a success story in a major IRS and Fortune 100 meeting in February 2001. For this work I received the MITRE program achievement awards in 2002 and 2005
Consultant to Air Force: Also, since May 1999 I have been appointed chief scientist/engineer in data management in MITRE’s Information Technology Directorate and in this position provide data management directions for MITRE’s programs for the Air Force as well as oversee the information technology technical work in the directorate in the following areas: information management, e-business and web computing, real-time computing, and decision support. I have also been consulting to MITRE's corporate initiatives in knowledge management and e-business. Between January 2001 and September 2001 I was Vice Chair of the Database Migration Panel to the AF Scientific Advisory Board (SAB).
Other Consulting: In the 1990s I consulted on several MITRE projects involving information and data management sponsored by the Intelligence Community, NASA (EOS project) and FAA.
Other Information: My work has resulted in IEEE’s Computer Society’s 1997 Technical Achievement Award, IEEE’s 2003 Fellow Award, AAAS 2003 Fellow award, British Computer Society’2005 Fellow Award, over 300 publications including over 70 journal articles, 3 software patents and 9 books (7 published and 2 in preparation). I give tutorials to sponsors, at conferences, and at the MITRE Institute in relational database management, distributed database management, heterogeneous database integration, real-time data management, secure data management, object-oriented database management, and data mining. I have also participated in standards efforts including Department of the Navy’s Database Interface Standard and Object Management Group’s real-time and C4I standards. I have given over 150 professional presentations including 30 keynote/featured addresses at major conferences. Also participated in panels at the National Academy of Sciences and the Air Force Scientific Advisory Board.
Leadership, Coordination: Between March 1996 and September 1997, as head of the Evolvable Interoperable Information Systems (EIIS) Initiative at MITRE reporting to the Vice President of Research and Technology, I was responsible for research in data management, real-time systems, software reverse engineering, economic analysis for information system evolution and interoperation, and object technology and architectures. I worked with the leaders in each of these areas. Prior to this responsibility, I lead the corporate initiative in data management between September 1994 and March 1996 (which is part of EIIS). As a co-director between October 1993 and December 1995, I organized meetings in data management to discuss projects as well as organize conferences at MITRE. Between October 1995 and May 1999 I was actively involved in promoting object technology within MITRE. In this role, I was part of a MITRE team working in distributed object management, object-oriented frameworks, design patterns, attend Object Management Group meetings and participate in the real-time SIG at OMG. I introduced real-time issues for the common object request broker architecture at Object World West ‘95, founded the C4I SIG at OMG in 1996, and organized object technology conferences at MITRE. I have also provided technology advice to MITRE's e-business initiatives.
Management: Between June 1995 and May 1999, as a department manager reporting to the Director of the Division, I have developed skills in my department of about 30 people in relational data management, object-oriented data management, distributed object management, distributed database management, heterogeneous database integration, multimedia data management, data warehousing, migrating legacy databases, data mining, web technology, data security, and knowledge management. I formed four groups in my department each focussing on a subset of the above technologies with security cutting across all areas. I have initiated and continued projects each year at MITRE totaling 3 - 4 staff years. I was actively involved in mentoring staff and helping them in leadership and coordination positions such as providing directions for MITRE's research as well as organizing internal conferences in data management and object technology. Between May 1999 and September 2001, as chief engineer, I had oversight of the technical work in MITRE's Information1Technology Directorate for about 200 staff.
