IBM has a history of continuous re-invention, transforming itself throughout its 100-plus year history. In the past five decades alone, IBM has ushered in the eras of the mainframe, the personal computer, IT services and enterprise software. In its current transformation, IBM is once again leading the reordering of the technology industry.  A number of years ago, the company declared its focus on the strategic forces behind the "digital" revolution; data, cloud and engagement, driven by mobile and social, and underpinned by security.

Because of this transformation, IBM today is much more than a hardware, software and services company; IBM is a cognitive solutions and cloud platform company, with a focus on industry capabilities and expertise.

Telephone: 513-529-0745
E-mail: scottmj3@miamioh.edu

 


Dr. Mark Scott received B.S. and M.S degrees in Electrical Engineering and a Ph.D. in Power Electronics from The Ohio State University in Columbus, OH. He joined the College of Engineering & Computing at Miami University in Oxford, OH as an Assistant Professor in 2015. He was awarded a National Science Foundation (NSF) fellowship in 2014 to perform research on the power supplies used in fusion reactors. This fellowship allowed him to travel to Hefei, China, to study the electrical systems of their tokamak.

His research includes applying silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) into motor drive systems for electrified vehicles, multilevel inverter topologies, and other renewable energy applications; modeling and mitigation methods of electromagnetic interference (EMI) in power electronics; odeling power electronics for medium-voltage, high-power applications such as Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) and power supplies for fusion reactors; and studying relationship between human behavior, power consumption, and energy related legislation.
