| BACKGROUND: |
Mr. Silverberg has a reputation
for excellence in system design, application development, and performance optimization in information processing technology. He teaches information technology courses across a range of curricula and manages the course search engine and database. His experience with IBM mainframe system software and the Java development platform provides him with a privileged perspective and skillset to teach IBM MQ and emerging third party and OSS middleware. Mr. Silverberg wrote a well received book on DB2
Performance, Design, and Implementation as part of the McGraw-Hill Information Technology Series. The Db2 subject matter has been updated to include cross platform implementation, scalability, and IBM Db2 cloud computing in CETi training courses. Mr. Silverberg specializes in teaching integrated client-specific Java and Microsoft .NET courses. In addition to providing classroom instruction, he manages the distance-learning service.
His current work includes researching and developing cloud computing, big data, and mobile device curriculum.
Together with David Shapiro, he is expanding the scope of operations to include aggregation, evaluation, and presentation of emerging trends in information technology.
