Mark Greaves is currently Technical Director for Analytics in the National Security Directorate of the US Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, providing scientific, programmatic, and business development leadership. At PNNL, he works with national security clients and cutting-edge PNNL scientific teams to advance the nation's overall capability for extracting meaning from large heterogeneous data sets.

Previously, Mark was Director of Knowledge Systems at Vulcan Inc., the private asset management company for Paul Allen, where he led advanced research teams in large knowledge bases and semantic web technologies, including semantic wikis and data- intensive artificial intelligence technologies. He also served as Vice President of the Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence, which supports individual researchers and research groups that have the promise to dramatically accelerate progress in artificial intelligence. Prior to Vulcan, Mark was Director of DARPA's Joint Logistics Technology Office, and Program Manager in DARPA's Information Exploitation Office. At DARPA, he directed national research programs in semantic web technology, formal ontology specification, logistics and supply chain control technologies, and the application of software agent technology to problems of distributed control of complex systems-of-systems. In May of 2005, he was awarded the Office of the Secretary of Defense Medal for Exceptional Public Service for his contributions to US national security while serving at DARPA.

Prior to coming to DARPA, Mark worked on advanced programs in software agent technology at the Mathematics and Computing Technology group of Boeing. He has published two books and over 20 papers, holds two patents, chaired the FIPA technical committee on agent communications languages, and from 2001 to 2004 served as co- chair of the Joint Readiness and Sustainment of Strategic Systems chapter of the Defense Joint Warfighting Science and Technology Plan. He currently serves on the Advisory Boards of several Semantic Web-oriented organizations, and is a Fellow of the Semantic Technology Institute. Mark holds a PhD in Philosophy from Stanford University.

Heather McCallum-Bayliss received her Ph.D. in Theoretical Linguistics from Georgetown University. She taught at Georgetown for seven years before moving to a research firm that focused on the development of human language technology systems with particular focus on systems for multilingual and multicultural name-searching. This work resulted in a patent for a phonologically based, multicultural name-search system. Since 2003, Dr. McCallum-Bayliss has defined and managed advanced multilingual research programs at the ODNI (Office of the Director of National Intelligence)'s Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity (IARPA) and its predecessor organizations. These efforts have produced automated question-answering systems as well as systems that tackle the use of language for characterization of social and cultural meaning and understanding. Dr. McCallum-Bayliss continues at IARPA as the Program Manager for the Metaphor and SCIL Programs.

Dr. Jeffrey G. Morrison joined ONR’s Human & Bioengineered Systems Department (341) as a Program Officer in January, 2011 where he leads the Command Decision Making (CDM) program. The program is conducting Basic & Applied cognitive science research for application to individual & group decision making. The current operational focus is on multi-echelon Command & Control. The science focus is on developing Proactive Decision Support tools (PDS) that are aware of mission and tasks context as well as the facilitating the development of a science of Context-Driven Decision Making (CDDM).
