Henry Lieberman has been a research scientist at MIT since 1972. He researched at the MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory from 1972 to 1987. From 1987 he his research has taken place at the MIT Media Laboratory. His work focuses on the intersection of artificial intelligence and the human interface. Dr. Lieberman began his career with Seymour Papert, and the group behind the educational language Logo. He is a member of the Software Agents group, and holds a doctoral-equivalent degree from the University of Paris-VI and has published over fifty papers on a wide variety of research topics. He is author of 'Your Wish is My Command: Giving Users the Power to Instruct their Software'. The subject of this is giving users the power to create and modify their own programs. Programming by example (PBE) is a technique in which a software agent records a user's behavior in an interactive graphical interface, then automatically writes a program that will perform that behavior for the user.
Recent, present and future research can enable the use of semantic web technologies, (developed from HTML by Tim Berners-Lee and others), to enable End User Programming. This fusion of research and technologies is illustrated by Henry Lieberman's home page [12] which has explanations of both areas of research. The book 'Spinning the Semantic Web - Bringing the World Wide Web to Its Full Potential' explains the semantic web technologies that can be used to make it easier for users to find the information they need.
