    Abstract:
    In recent years, IBM has invested heavily in its services business in India. IBM's India Research Lab has also placed significant focus on the technical problems that need to be solved to improve and differentiate these services-based operations. The solutions to these problems draw from various computer science disciplines like distributed systems, software engineering, information management, and optimization. In this talk, I will give an overview of the services research landscape in IBM India, present some representative problems and solutions, and discuss our new academic initiatives in "Service Science".Bio:
    Dr. Guruduth Banavar is the Associate Director of IBM's India Research Laboratory, Bangalore, and also heads the Services Innovation and Research Center (SIRC). He started IBM's new research group in Bangalore, where a world-class team is now focused on cutting-edge industrial research problems relevant to the region and globally. Previously, Guru was the Senior Manager of the Pervasive Infrastructure Department at IBM's Thomas J. Watson Research Center in New York, where he led a large research team working on several aspects of pervasive computing. He has also developed technology innovations in areas like synchronous collaboration, content-based publish-subscribe systems, middleware for content delivery, and platform-independent application development.
