Dr. In-Young Ko
is a postdoctoral research associate at the Distributed Scalable Systems Division at the USC Information Sciences Institute.
He received his B.S. and M.S. in
Computer Science from
Sogang University,
Seoul,
Korea in 1990 and 1992, respectively, and a Ph.D. in Computer Science
from the University of Southern California in 2003.
His M.S. thesis advisor was Prof. Felix M. Villarreal S.J., and his Ph.D. thesis advisor was Prof. Robert Neches.
His research interests span software component management and coordination mechanisms in large-scale, distributed system environments. He is currently working in the
CHIME,
WebScripter and
SIM-TBASSCO projects at the
USC Information Sciences Institute. He is the principal architect of SIM-TBASSCO's schemes for semantic representation, semantic gauges and component linking. He has played a key role at the project in developing a metadata framework for describing software components and a reasoning mechanism to measure semantic interoperability and compatibility between software components. As part of his Ph.D. dissertation as well as the project work, he designed and developed a component-based application scripting mechanism that allows users build high-level information management applications by describing the execution behavior and data-flow among distributed software components. Previously, Dr. Ko worked on
GeoWorlds and
DASHER projects,
where he developed geo-spatial information gathering, analysis and visualization components. Before joining USC, he was a full-time instructor in the Computer Science Department at the
Korea Air Force Academy. There he taught various Computer Science subjects to the cadets.
