Greg Wolff leads the “Platform for
Information Applications” project at Ricoh Silicon Valley which aims
to do for Web applications/document processing what spreadsheets did for
numeric processing—give non-programmers the ability to control and customize
the behaviors associated with their documents. Mr. Wolff joined Ricoh
in 1991 with an MS in Cognitive Psychology from Carnegie Mellon University.
His contributions include fundamental research on machine learning with
applications to speech recognition and improved interaction techniques
for information composition and retrieval.
