ABSTRACT
Over the past 15 years large systems integrators have grown in size by an order of magnitude. During this time the nature of the systems we build, the manner in which they are built, and the clients for whom they are built have seen corresponding growth. During this talk I will review some of these changes and discuss some of the challenges we see on the horizon as these trends continue. What kind of systems would a systems integrator with 2 million people develop? How would they be built?

Mining semantics for large scale integration on the web: evidences, insights, and challenges
The Web has been rapidly "deepened" -- with myriad searchable databases online, where data are hidden behind query interfaces. Toward large scale integration over this "deep Web," we are facing a new challenge- With its dynamic and ad-hoc nature, such ...
