Research Professor, Department of Computer Science, University of North Carolina

Inducted in 2011

Diane Pozefsky is a professor at the University of North Carolina in the department of computer science. In 2004, she retired from her career at IBM where she worked over 20 years. At IBM, she was a member of the communication systems architecture department where she developed the specification and application of the systems network architecture (SNA), which is a large and complex feature-rich network.

In 2000 and in 1988, Diane worked with the Olympics to build and create network and application design. Her other career applications include networking protocols, storage networking, application development, and mobile computing.

In 1994, IBM issued Diane a fellowship in recognition for her work on APPN and AnyNet architectures and development. She holds 24 United States Patents.

Diane has written many publications: "Storage Networking: More than an SNA Anagram" in "NCP and 3745/46 Today," (Summer 2001); "MPTN Transport Gateway," with D.
