Jerry Z. Gao Ph.D. is a professor of Computer Engineering Department at San Jose State University in California. Dr. Gao has co-authored three technical books, two of them relating to software testing. His current research interests include component-based software engineering, software testing methodology and test automation, information technology and Internet computing, mobile computing and wireless commerce. Dr. Gao has over 12 years research experience and 8 years software development and management experience in software engineering. Before he joined San Jose State University, he worked for Fujitsu Network Communications System, Inc. as a manager of an R&D group in the software-engineering department. At Fujitsu, he was instrumental in developing an enterprise software production environment over the Internet. His team is the driving force to establish an enterprise-oriented software-engineering environment over the Internet in Fujitsu. Now, he has over 70 technical papers in IEEE/ACM journals and magazines as well as international conferences, and numerous book chapters. As a co-author, his first book is titled as Object-Oriented Software Testing, published by IEEE Computer Society Press, 1998. In 2003, he published his second book, titled as "Testing and Quality Assurance for Component-Based Software", by Artech House Publishers in September 2003. Recently, he published another book, titled as Engineering Wireless-Based Software and Application Systems. In 2007, he is a guest editor for International Journal of Software Engineering and Knowledge Engineering for a special issue on Testing and Quality Assurance for Component-Based Software. Since 2004, he has been an invited guest editor for Journal of E-Commerce Research and Application, Journal for Theoretical and Applied Electronic Commerce Research, and International Journal of Knowledge Engineering and Software Engineering.
Since 2004, Dr. Gao has organized a number of international conferences and workshops in software engineering, information technology, and mobile-commerce, including ICYCS’05, EECC2006, TQACBS2005-6, WMCS2004-6, SEKE07, EMOBS07, TEST07. He is the workshop co-chair for the First and Second IEEE International Workshop on Mobile Commerce and Services (WMCS04-05). He also organized the First IEEE International Workshop on Engineering Mobile-Based Software and Applications (EMOBS07). He has served as a PC for numerous international conferences and workshops. In the recent years, he has offered a number of technical tutorials for International Conferences and large IT and software industry in Software Engineering, including 18th IEEE International Conference on Automated Software Engineering 2003 and 3rd International Conference on COTS-Based Software Systems (ICCBSS 2004). In 2005, he was invited by ICYCS’05 to deliver his keynote speech on Engineering Mobile-Based Software and Applications – Issues, Challenges, and Needs. In 2007, he is an invited keynote speaker for ROSATEA 2007 in July 10, at Boston, USA.
