Mark ProctorMark Proctor received his B.S. Eng. in Engineer Science and Technology and then his M.S. in Business and Information Systems; both from Brunel University, West London. His M.S. thesis was in the field of Genetic Algorithms; which is where he first got his interest for anything AI related.
Mark became involved in the Drools expert system project at an early stage and soon became its project lead. Mark then joined JBoss (later acquired by RedHat) as an employee when the Drools project was federated into the JBoss JEMS stack.
Having developed a powerful expert system, Mark is now turning his attention to other declarative paradigms in an effort to unify them to allow for richer domain modeling environments.
Kris VerlaenenKris is a Software Engineer at JBoss, by Red Hat, where he leads on the jBPM project (an open-source business process management (BPM) suite), and is also part of the Drools project (an open-source Java rules engine). The jBPM project consists of a lightweight workflow engine in Java that support native BPMN 2.0 execution and various tools and features around that to support business processes throughout their entire life cycle.
Kris did a PhD in Computer Science at the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium. His main research area is policy-based management, i.e. using declarative policy rules for configuring services, resulting in highly-configurable, reusable services. He has experience and a great intrest in policy-based and rule-based systems, workflow management, service-oriented software development and clinical decision support.
