I work for Red Hat, where I lead JBoss technical direction and research/development. Prior to this I was SOA Technical Development Manager and Director of Standards. I was Chief Architect and co-founder at Arjuna Technologies, an HP spin-off (where I was a Distinguished Engineer). I've been working in the area of reliable distributed systems since the mid-80's. My PhD was on fault-tolerant distributed systems, replication and transactions. I'm also a Professor at Newcastle University and Lyon.

Bluestone and Steve Jobs
Amongst all of the various articles and tributes to Steve Jobs I came across this from Bob, who is one of the people that has influenced my career significantly (and positively!) over the years. So it's interesting to read the influence Steve had on Bob, Bluestone, HP and hence Arjuna, JBoss and now Red Hat (not forgetting the other companies with which Bob's been involved over the years)! Thanks Bob and thanks, indirectly, Steve.
