| Biographical Data |
|
Frank Leymann is a full professor of computer science and
director of the Institute of Architecture of Application Systems
at the University of Stuttgart, Germany. His research interests
include service oriented computing and middleware, workflow- and
business process management, Cloud Computing, transaction
processing, integration technology, and architecture patterns.
Before accepting his professor position he worked for two
decades for IBM Software Group building database and middleware
products: He built tools supporting conceptual and physical
database design for DB2; built performance prediction and
monitoring tools for an object database system; was co-architect
of a repository system; built both, a universal relation system as
well as a complex object database system on top of DB2; and was
co-architect of the MQSeries family. In parallel to that, Frank
worked continuously since the late eighties on workflow technology
and became the father of IBM's workflow product set.
As an IBM Distinguished Engineer and elected member of the IBM
Academy of Technology he contributed to the architecture and
strategy of IBM's entire middleware stack as well as IBM's On
Demand Computing strategy. From 2000 on, Frank worked as
co-architect of the Web Service stack. He is co-author of many Web
Service specifications, including WSFL, WS-Addressing, WS-Metadata
Exchange, WS-Business Agreement, the WS-Resource Framework set
of specifications, WS-HumanTask and BPEL4People;
together with Satish Thatte, he was the driving
force behind BPEL4WS. Also, he is co-author of BPMN 2.0 and TOSCA.
Currently, Frank works on the following third-party funded research projects:
For the DFG Excellence Cluster
SimTech
his group contributes a service-oriented environment for modeling and
executing multi-scale simulations.
In the DFG Excellence Graduate School
GSaME
work is done on a service-based environment
for adaptive business processes in manufacturing environments.
The focus of his work in the
Nexus
DFG Center of Excellence is in the area of context-aware business processes.
New mechanisms for composing SOA-based applications and their
embedding into corresponding software engineering methods are
subject of the EU FP7 project
S-Cube
.
The development of variable Cloud services and their support by an appropriate PaaS platform is investigated in the EU FP7 project
4CaaSt
.
Within the BMWi funded project
CloudCycle
a middleware is developed that supports the portability of Cloud applications as well as ensuring their trust properties.
The role of Clouds to ensure ecological policies is investigated within the BMWi funded project
Migrate
.
Similarly, Frank is active in projects that are directly funded by industry. Topics worked on in these projects are from the area of service- and process-oriented architectures as well as cloud computing.
Finished projects:
As Scientific Director of the EU FP6 project
SUPER
,
he set the direction for the whole project which
is about combining semantics technology and business process technology.
In the EU FP6 project
TripCom
,
his group contributed to combine SOA technoloy and space-based computing.
In the BMBF project
Tools4BPEL
extensions of BPEL for specifying choreographies and their QoS have been worked out.
MDA-based mechanisms for ensuring compliance in SOA- and especially
in process-based applications were investigated by his team in the EU FP7
project
COMPAS
.
The use of SOA- and process-technologies for preventing violations
of security assertions has been the focus in the EU FP7 project
MASTER
.
Within the EU FP7 project
ALLOW
the focus of research is on enabling the adaptability of flows
as basis for building applications in pervasive environments.
Frank published many papers in journals and proceedings,
co-authored three text books, and holds a multitude of patents
especially in the area of workflow management and transaction
processing. He served on program committees and organization
committees of many international conferences, and he is
(associated) editor of a couple of journals.
Since 2006 he is member of the scientific directorate of
Schloss Dagstuhl (Leibniz Center of Computer Science).
