About Peter Rodgers
|
|
Peter Rogers is the originator of resource oriented computing and co-architect of 1060 NetKernel, a resource oriented computing platform. Developed out of original research led by Rogers at Hewlett-Packard Labs, NetKernel combines and extends the fundamental principles of the Web and Unix to create a coherent and simple software abstraction. Resource oriented computing means everything is treated as logical URI addressed resources, just like in the Web, even code and functions. By thinking first about logical information resources and stepping away from APIs, the amazing flexibility and scaling properties demonstrated in the Web can be applied down inside the internals of software architecture.
Rogers is one of the co-founders of 1060 Research and a co-architect of 1060 NetKernel. Prior to forming 1060 Research, he was the leader of Hewlett-Packard's Dexter research programme. At HP he held a number of positions including senior research scientist and senior strategist to HP's mobile computing division. In 1999 Rogers founded HP's Information Commerce research programme and started the foundational research on resource oriented computing. He holds a first class BSc in Physics from St. Andrews University and a PhD in solid-state Quantum Mechanics from the University of Nottingham.
