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.
