About the Authors

Leigh Williamson has been working for IBM in Austin, Texas, for 15 years on projects related to distributed computing systems and system management. He holds a B.S. in Computer Science from Nova Southeastern University, and a Masters in Computer Engineering from University of Texas at Austin. Leigh contributed to the Version 3 and 4 releases of WebSphere and led the team that designed and implemented the new administrative architecture for WebSphere Version 5. He holds several patents in various areas of software design. Prior to working for IBM, Leigh spent many years doing engineering development for TRW and the U.S. Navy.

Lavena Chan is a software engineer for IBM in Austin, Texas. She holds an M.B.A. from the University of Texas at Austin. Chan has six years’ experience in the middleware field and her areas of expertise include install, GUI, application management, and scripting programming.

Roger Cundiff has been developing systems management and component-based software for most of the last 18 years, despite the fact that he doesn’t believe it could really have been that long. In 1997 he was the initial member of the development team for management of application servers at the IBM lab in Austin, Texas, and he continues to work there today on the development of WebSphere systems management.

Shawn Lauzon is a software engineer who has been working at IBM for the past eight years, originally in Rochester, Minnesota, and the past three years in Austin, Texas. A graduate of the University of Wisconsin, he was exposed to computing at an early age when his father brought home a Radio Shack TRS-80 with a full 4K of memory. He learned to program BASIC on that computer and has continued to write software ever since. He is currently working on the next release of WebSphere with Aspect-Oriented Software Design.

Christopher C. Mitchell is a senior software engineer at IBM’s WebSphere development lab in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina. He is the lead architect for WebSphere’s console and configuration and has been a development team leader through a number of WebSphere releases. Prior to joining IBM, Chris worked for 10 years with companies on object oriented design and development tools as well as on solutions for the healthcare industry. Chris currently holds a B.S. in Computer Science from Ohio University.
