SIR TIM BERNERS-LEE  |  WEB INVENTOR, DIRECTOR, W3C
Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web in 1989. He founded and Directs 
the World Wide Consortium (W3C) the forum for technical development of the 
Web. He founded the Web Foundation whose mission is that the WWW serves 
Humanity, and co-founded the Open Data Institute in London. His research group 
at MIT’s Computer Science and AI Lab (“CSAIL”) plans to re-decentralize the Web. 
Tim spends a lot of time fighting for rights such as privacy, freedom and openness 
of the Web.
He is the 3Com Founders Professor of Engineering in the School of Engineering 
with a joint appointment in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Com-
puter Science at the Laboratory for Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence 
(CSAIL) at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) where he also heads the 
Decentralized Information Group (DIG). He is also a Professor in the Electronics 
and Computer Science Department at the University of Southampton, UK.

PETER NORVIG  |  DIRECTOR OF RESEARCH, GOOGLE 
THE SEMANTIC WEB AND THE SEMANTICS OF THE WEB: WHERE DOES 
MEANING COME FROM?
We would like to understand the meaning of content on the web. But where should 
that meaning come from? From markup language created by the authors of the 
content? Crowdsourced from readers of the content? Automatically extracted by 
machine learning algorithms? This talk investigates the possibilities.
Peter Norvig is a Director of Research at Google Inc. Previously he was head of 
Google’s core search algorithms group, and of NASA Ames’s Computational Sciences 
Division, making him NASA’s senior computer scientist. He received the NASA Excep-
tional Achievement Award in 2001. He has taught at the University of Southern Cali-
fornia and the University of California at Berkeley, from which he received a Ph.D. in 
1986 andthe distinguished alumni award in 2006. He was co-teacher of an Artifical 
Intelligence class that signed up 160,000 students, helping to kick off the current 
round of massive open online classes. His publications include the books Artificial 
Intelligence: A Modern Approach (the leading textbook in the field), Paradigms of 
AI Programming: Case Studies in Common Lisp, Verbmobil: A Translation System for 
Face-to-Face Dialog, and Intelligent Help Systems for UNIX. He is also the author of 
the Gettysburg Powerpoint Presentation and the world’s longest palindromic sen-
tence. He is a fellow of the AAAI, ACM, California Academy of Science and American 
Academy of Arts 
& Sciences.

MARY ELLEN ZURKO  |  PRINCIPAL ENGINEER, CISCO SYSTEMS 
LA SÉCURITÉ OUVERTE - HOW WE DOING SO FAR?
Open has meant a lot of things in the web thus far.  The openness of the web has 
had profound implications for web security, from the beginning through to today. 
Each time the underlying web technology changes, we do a reset on the security it 
provides.  Patterns and differences emerge in each round of security responses and 
challenges. What has that brought us as web users, technologists, researchers, and 
as a global community? What can we expect going forward? And what should we 
work towards as web technologists and caretakers?
Mary Ellen Zurko (Mez) is a member of the Office of the CTO, Security Business 
Group, at Cisco Systems, and a Principal Engineer on the Next Generation Fire-
wall team there. Mez is a seminal member of the National Academies of Sciences 
Forum on Cyber Resilience. She was security architect of one of IBM’s earliest 
clouds; SaaS for business collaboration. She defined the field of User-Centered 
Security in 1996. As a senior research fellow at the Open Group Research Institute, 
she led several innovative security initiatives in authorization policies, languages, 
and mechanisms that incorporate user-centered design elements. She started her 
security career at DEC working on a high assurance A1 Virtual Machine Monitor. 
She has written on security and the web, public key infrastructures, distributed 
authorization,  active content security, and user-centered security. She is a contrib-
utor to the O’Reilly book “Security and Usability: Designing Secure Systems that 
People Can Use.” She is on the steering committees of New Security Paradigms 
Workshop and Symposium on Useable Privacy and Security. Mez received S.B and 
S.M. degrees in computer science from MIT.
