Avi Silberschatz is the Sidney J. Weinberg Professor of Computer Science
at Yale University. Prior to joining Yale, he was the Vice President of
the Information Sciences Research Center at Bell Laboratories, Murray
Hill, New Jersey. Prior to that, he held a chaired professorship in the
Department of Computer Sciences at the University of Texas at Austin.
His research interests include database systems, operating systems, Bioscience
database systems, storage system, network management, and distributed
systems.
Professor Silberschatz is an ACM Fellow and an IEEE Fellow. He received
the 2002 IEEE Taylor L. Booth Education Award, the 1998 ACM Karl V. Karlstrom
Outstanding Educator Award, and the 1997 ACM SIGMOD Contribution Award.
In recognition of his outstanding level of innovation and technical excellence,
he was awarded the Bell Laboratories President's Award for three different
projects -- the QTM Project (1998), the DataBlitz Project (1999), and
the NetInventory Project (2004).
Professor Silberschatz has graduated over a dozen Ph.D. students who now
hold positions in academic institutions and industrial research laboratories.
His writings have appeared in numerous ACM and IEEE publications and in
other professional conferences and journals. He obtained over four dozen
patents and over two dozen grants. He is a co-author of two well known
textbooks -- Operating System Concepts and Database System Concepts.
In addition to his academic and industrial positions, Professor Silberschatz served as a member of the Biodiversity and Ecosystems Panel on President Clinton's Committee of Advisors on Science and Technology, as an advisor for the National Science Foundation, and as a consultant for several private industry companies. He has also written Op-Ed articles for the New York Times, the Boston Globe, and the Hartford Courant, among others.
