People

Hans Bergsten -- President/Sr. Designer: During Hans's seventeen years at Ericsson he developed software systems for everything from IBM mainframes, through DEC minicomputers, Unix workstation and servers, to PCs, using many different programming languages. He first came in contact with Object Oriented concepts through Simula in the development of a simulator for cellular phone systems in 1985, and he has continued to explore this powerful technology in many projects using Smalltalk, C/C++ and Java. He has developed database applications since before SQL was the standard database language, worked with network based applications since the late eighties, and started to study Java when it was first made public in 1995.

Hans has worked on large and small projects, as a programmer, designer and as a project manager. In 1997, Hans founded Gefion Software to further develop his ideas about network based, platform independent, software systems.

He participates in the specification of Java server-side technologies such as the Servlet API, JavaServer Pages (JSP), JSP Standard Tag Library (JSTL) and JavaServer Faces (JSF), and is a frequent writer of articles, the author of O'Reilly's JavaServer Pages and a contributor to Java Enterprise Best Practices (O'Reilly).
