Scott Trent

trent @ jp.ibm.com


As a researcher in the Systems group of the IBM Tokyo Research Laboratory, I am currently engaged in computer language research. Although my primary interests include reliability, performance, and Unix operating systems topics, I enjoy investigating new fields since the knowledge and experience from one area typically improve understanding in other areas.

While attending school, I worked as programmer enhancing the Corvus Operating System and implementing medical simulations. At IBM-Austin, in addition to leadership roles such as team lead and AIX Development Process ownership, I was responsible for development activities (function design, standards implementation, internationalization, performance, security, etc.) for a variety of AIX components. While at IBM Japan Systems Engineering Co. Ltd, I provided in-depth Unix technical consultation services for IBM engineers and customers throughout Asia, and also had the opportunity to serve as the ISE pSeries group leader for part of that time.
