Overview

Michael Sheng is a researcher at CSIRO ICT Centre. From 2002 to 2005 he was engaged in the Process Modeling and Orchestration of Composite Web Services project at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) while completing his Ph.D.  From 1999 to 2001, Sheng worked at UNSW as a visiting Research Fellow in the field of multimedia database. Prior to that, he spent 6 years as a senior software engineer in industries.

Sheng has edited two books and published more than 20 refereed technical papers in journals and conferences including VLDB Journal, IEEE Internet Computing, CACM, VLDB02, ICDE02, and CAiSE04. He has been invited to serve on organizing and program committees for dozens of international conferences including ACM SAC, WISE, ICSOC, IEEE ICPADS. He was the publication chair of WISE05 and publicity co-chair of ICSOC05.

Sheng is the recipient of the Microsoft Research Fellowship (2003-2004) and CSC Fellowship (1999-2000). He is also featured in "Who's Who in the World" 2007 Edition.
