Success Story

With collaborators, he invented a real-time time-sharing system used in 16,000 large computers (1968), widely emulated
access control software (1975), and digital library services that became IBM's Content Manager offering (1993). After leaving IBM, he designed the first reliable long-term preservation method
for digital documents (2002).
