As the primary driver of Contivo's eCommerce solutions for accelerating deployment of B2B eCommerce trading networks, Dave is helped bring the Contivo eService to market and create the vision and relationships that will drive its success.
As a co-inventor of XML, Dave's involvement with XML began before XML had a name. Seeking a more efficient means to manage the large amount of data delivered by HP.COM, Dave was a member of the initial XML Working Group (known then as the Web-SGML working group). Dave co-authored the W3C Namespaces in XML Recommendation and XML Applications, a book from Wrox Press. Currently, Dave serves as co-chair of the W3C Web Services Architecture Group and XML Schemas Working Group.
Prior to joining Contivo, held senior technical positions as CommerceNet, Hewlett-Packard and Bell Laboratories as well as other companies.

Dave developed facsimile and teleconferencing systems, animation and presentation graphics systems and when CD-ROMs were introduced, Dave joined Phillips and Dupont Optical to provide technical support for the emerging market and became interested in large-scale information publishing.
Most recently, Dave was a Director at CommerceNet which provided the opportunity to apply his background in XML, Knowledge Management and the Web to a wide range of research initiatives as well as contributing to projects such as to the eCo Framework, OBI and the Catalog Interoperability Project.
At Hewlett-Packard Dave developed CD-ROM publishing systems that are still in use today. The large quantities of information published monthly, at that time HP was the largest industrial CD-ROM publisher, led to the investigation of emerging information standards, including SGML an ISO standard for document markup. Dave led efforts to deploy SGML within HP and also worked with the OSF and Davenport Group to develop industry support for SGML based computer documentation. Dave then joined HP's corporate marketing group to architect, develop and operate HP.COM as it grew from an initial 5000 hits per day to over 1 million hits per day. In other corporate groups at HP, Dave was the architect for various intranet efforts including proxy server and web browser deployments, an intranet search engine providing access to 5000 servers and more than a million documents and an XML based product information publishing system.
On the personal side, Dave is a husband, father of two boys, and enjoys achieving very high scores at local golf courses.
