 Yongshun Cai
Yongshun Cai is currently working with ITU-T WP6/13 on the subject of cloud computing and acting as the main editor of draft recommendation "Cloud computing infrastructure requirements".He is also focusing on the standardization of cloud computing reference architecture, security, ecosystem, networking and cloud services.
He received M.E. degree in computer engineering from Politecnico di Milano, Italy, in 2009. Since joined China Telecom in 2009, he has engaged in research and development on cloud computing systems, including key technologies of distributed computing (clustering), system virtualization, cloud storage, multi-tenancy architecture and so on. |
 John Grant / Nine Tiles, UK
John Grant is chair of IEC PT 62379 (Common Control Interface, in TC100/TA4) and of Audio Engineering Society standards working-group SC-02-02 (digital audio interfacing), as well as editor of TR29181-3. His career began at the Cambridge University Computer Laboratory, and he wrote the operating system and BASIC compiler for the Sinclair ZX range of microcomputers. In 1981 he created local area networking technology which was used in both industrial and commercial environments and is still in use today. Since then he has created products for carrying video and audio over digital networks, and related network switching equipment; this has given him an insight into the requirements of audio and other live media, which are very different from those for data traffic. |
