Mark Wegman, Ph.D., IBM, ACM, and IEEE fellow, member of the National Academy of Engineering, and Distinguished Alumnus from UC Berkeley Mark Wegman, Ph.D., is known for his contributions to algorithms and compiler optimization. Pretty much every commercial quality optimizing compiler is based on his inventions. Every GIF format image on the internet depends on ideas he’s patented. As he worked on IBM’s 10-year outlook on technology in the IT industry, he realized that, strangely enough, progress in technology driven by yet to be discovered inventions is relatively easy to do and often less important than the disruptions caused by a realization that technology could be applied to a need no one else has realized needed to be satisfied. That’s what attracted him to this work and to understand how to recognize authentic demand. Wegman has published and patented more than 100 works, with more than 18,000 citations, primarily in algorithms, information theory and software engineering. He was a member of the board of directors for Biospecific Technologies, where he helped grow its value twentyfold before it was sold.
