About the technology author(s)
Senior Technical Staff Member for IBM Global Services at Sterling Forest
James Wason is a Senior Technical Staff Member for IBM Global Services at Sterling Forest. He began his professional career as a research mathematician, having received a Ph.D. from the University of Columbia in 1973. After teaching briefly at MIT, he received an MBA from Babson College in 1979 and joined IBM, assuming technical leadership of the Development Production Records System (DPRS). Dr. Wason spent several years as architect and manager for various applications in the engineering records area.
In 1988, IBM transformed an application of Dr. Wason's into an object-oriented product (ProductManager). After initial service as the domain expert, Dr. Wason has spent the last ten years building object-object oriented frameworks, designing object-oriented applications, consulting, and writing patents. Currently, Dr. Wason focuses on Lotus Notes and Web applications, and he is the e-Advocate and technical safety net for Sterling Forest and much of the Northeast. EADP, one of his major projects, began as a part of ProductManager, but it has subsequently been released in Smalltalk and Java versions.
