Michael Vladyslav Sobolewski Ph.D, D.Sc. known as Michał Władysław Sobolewski (born April 16, 1947 in Morąg) – is a Polish-American computer scientist working in the USA and Poland.
Professional interests[edit]
He specializes in Metacomputing (Service Oriented Computing, Metaprogramming, Multi-Agent Systems, Cybersecurity, System Integration, Information exchange, Collaborative working environment, Knowledge integration), Distributed Computing, Mobile Computing, Object-oriented Programming (Java), Software Architecture, Software Engineering. He is also interested in Bioinformatics, multimedia, Computer Graphics, Artificial Intelligence, Concurrent Engineering, Programming Languages, Digital Image Processing, Optical Character Recognition and E-learning.
Education[edit]
He began his studies at the Gdańsk University of Technology (1965–1967) and graduated in 1971 at the LETI Electrotechnical University in Leningrad (now St. Petersburg), obtaining the title of Master of Science in Engineering (with honorary distinction). The master's thesis was devoted to recognizing electro-paramagnetic resonance signals. In 1978 he obtained a doctoral degree at the Institute of Computer Science of the Polish Academy of Sciences based on the dissertation entitled "Class of languages and models for pattern recognition", supervised by Victor W. Marek Ph.D, D.Sc. In 2012 he obtained a D.Sc. at the Polish-Japanese Institute of Information Technology on the basis of scientific achievements and a postdoctoral dissertation entitled "Metacomputing: Specification of metaprocesses of computational processes".
Career[edit]
He is the director of the SORCER Laboratory in the United States, where he conducts research in the field of service-oriented distributed systems for metacomputing. In addition, he cooperates with the U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory as the World Class Scientist in the Aerospace Systems Directorate, where he conducts research on metaprogramming languages. In parallel, since 2010, he has been working as a professor at the Polish-Japanese Institute of Information Technology, where he teaches software engineering and distributed systems. From 2002 to 2009 he was full professor in the Department of Computer Science at Texas Tech University, where he lectured and coordinated the research in metacomputing in the SORCER Laboratory that he created. Earlier, in years 1994–2002, he worked as a senior computer scientist at the General Electric Global Research Center. His responsibilities included managing projects in the field of distributed systems that were sponsored by U.S. government agencies. Among others, he was the main architect of projects: Federated Intelligent Product EnviRonment (FIPER) and CAMnet (Computer Aided Manufacturing Network). Moreover, he designed and partially implemented seventeen distributed systems that were used by General Electric. In years 1989–1994 he conducted research on concurrent engineering as part of the DICE program at the Concurrent Engineering Research Center (CERC) at West Virginia University. Prior to being invited to CERC, he conducted research at various institutes of the Polish Academy of Sciences for 18 years. These works concerned object-oriented languages, knowledge representation and pattern recognition. In his career at the Polish Academy of Sciences he was head of the Pattern Recognition and Image Processing Department, head of the Expert Systems Laboratory and head of the Pattern Recognition Methodologies Lab. He is the author of over 100 peer-reviewed publications and a frequent keynote speaker.[1][2][3][4][5]
Important achievements[edit]
His research achievements can be divided into three main areas. The first concerns issues of knowledge modeling and representation, the second one focuses on the use of various methods and tools of artificial intelligence in supporting engineering processes, and the third one, in which he has been active in the period of the last 20 years, is the topic of globally distributed computational systems and their service-oriented process expression and actualization. He worked in the field of modeling and knowledge representation until the late 1980s. At the end of the 1980s, he engaged in research concerning the use of various methods and tools of artificial intelligence to support the engineering work. The second half of the 1990s is a gradual, evolutionary transition to the third area which has flourished in the last 20 years. Most of his work has strong references to design and development of real world complex distributed computing systems. These references can be seen primarily in the second and third areas of research. His achievements include both conceptual and implementation contributions. His work shows concepts of capturing specific aspects of the engineering design process as well as specific fragments of IT methods and tools created by him or in collaboration with him. In particular, he is the author of the concept and the principal designer and developer of the SORCER metacomputing environment which implements his original concepts in the field of distributed systems, management of distributed systems, meta-programming languages and exertion-oriented programming.[6]
