About the guest  Angel Luis Diaz is IBM director for WebSphere Business Integration with a
focus on BPM architecture and product development. Prior to this role, Diaz
led IBM Software Group Technology Strategy and SOA Innovation, and On
Demand Operating Environment Technology Strategy and Marketing. Major
accomplishments include the creation of the On Demand Operating Environment
Architecture and Standards Compendium, as well as a cross-discipline
technique for helping customers achieve that architecture. Earlier, he was a
member of IBM's Research staff and a senior manager, where he led advanced
technology projects related to XML and Web services. In 2002, he initiated
the world’s first two standards that made use of Web services: the
Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards
(OASIS) Web Services For Remote Portals (WSRP) and OASIS Web Services For
Interactive Applications (WSIA). As a result, he was nominated to the OASIS
Technical Advisory Board, a body that defined the technical agenda for
future OASIS standards work. In 1998, Diaz was co-chair and co-author of the
first XML standard: the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Mathematical Markup
Language (MathML). Since then, he has served on seven W3C activities,
including the Extensible Style Language (XSL), Cascading Style Sheets
(CSS), and Document Object Model (DOM). Diaz received his doctorate in
computer science (distributed computing and computer algebra) from
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.
