Sung-Chi's current interests cover technologies for e-Platform, the emerging RFID (Radio Frequency Identificaiton) technology, and AOLA. He was Professor of Computer Science at Radford University, and currently serving as CTO in the Center of Cyber Logistics that he co-founded at the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK). His goal is to realize the e-Platform where both logistics e-Business and AOLA for mathematics education can be conducted. He is an adjunct associate professor in the faculty of business administration in CUHK. He recently co-authored a book entitled "4th Party Cyber Logistics for Air Cargo" (2004), published in the International Series in Operations Research & Management Science, Springer.

George Fernandez is an Associate Professor (Information Systems) at the School of Computer Science and Information Technology at RMIT, currently teaching Distributed Systems Engineering and Computer Systems. George has more than 30 years of experience in Computing and Information Systems, working in academia, private industry and government organisations both in Australia and Argentina. He often presents in academic and industry forums, and is a co-author of the book “Distributed Applications Engineering” (Springer-Verlag). His research interests include Distributed Computing, Federated Architectures for the Enterprise, and Enterprise Integration. Over the last few years, George has also focused on e-learning, and as a result he has developed a variety of software tools for Flexible/On-Line subject delivery, a category in which he received in December 1999 an Australian Award for University Teaching (Flexible Delivery/Learning).

Gary Fitz-Gerald is an Associate Professor (Applied Mathematics) in the School of Mathematical and Geospatial Sciences at RMIT, being currently Program Leader of Science and Engineering Mathematics and Statistics, a role that he has enjoyed for almost two decades.

Gary has more than thirty years of experience in teaching Engineering Mathematics and researching Applied Mathematics in Australia.

He frequently presents his work in academic forums, and is a co-author of the book "Mathematical Methods for Engineers and Scientists", 4th ed, Pearson.
His research interests include fluid mechanics, in particular water-wave theory. Over the last few years, Gary has also focused his attention on e-learning, using a variety of software tools for flexible/on-line subject delivery and assessment.

Professor Yahya Abu Hasan is with the School of Mathematical Sciences, Universiti Sains Malaysia since 1985. He received his Ph.D. from London University in mathematical physics. His present research interest includes cryptography, medical image watermarking and mining microarray and medical data. He has served on the ATCM International Program Committee for many of the conferences.

Jozef Hvorecky graduated Numerical Mathematics at the Comenius University in Bratislava and then PhD. (in Computer Programming) at the Academy of Sciences of the USSR in Moscow. During more than 30 years of teaching he lectured at many universities sometimes in very exotic countries like Papua New Guinea, India, the United Arab Emirates, Macau, and Mexico.

Currently he is the head of the Computing and Information Science Department at the City University Bellevue, Bratislava campus – the first private university in Slovakia. He also teaches on-line courses for the University of Liverpool’s Laureate Program. His research is oriented to Computer Education, E-learning, and Use of Computers in Teaching Mathematics.

In 2005, Masami Isoda is Associate Professor of Mathematics Education, University of Tsukuba; Director, Japan Society of Mathematical Education; and Director, Japan Society of Science Education. Current his major work is educational cooperation for developing countries. He has been managing three national projects by Ministry of Education in Japan and an international project by Asian-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC), and engaging in projects by JICA for seven developing countries. His personal research topic in mathematics education is mathematization from historical perspective.

Grant Keady was born in Western Australia, and completed his first degree at its University. He returned to Australia from England, with a PhD from Cambridge and an English wife, in the early 1970s, and has been based at the University of Western Australia since 1974. His continuing enthusiasms include (1) mathematics, (2) programming, (3) applied computer algebra. To earn a living, the main areas he prefers to lecture are the upper levels of engineering mathematics, attempting to involve the students in seeing the connections between mathematics and reality, and training them in using engineering mathematics software to help them get started with tools useful for the rest of their careers in using maths in engineering tasks. Large class teaching has also led to significant interests in computer aided assessment systems underpinned by computer algebra.

Wong Ka Lok is a Teaching Consultant at the Faculty of Education, The University of Hong Kong. He started his career in the field of mathematics education since mid-80s of the last century, first as a secondary school teacher, and later – before the start of this century – joined the teacher-training force in the tertiary sector. His research interests range from the teaching and learning of certain mathematical topics (particularly geometry, statistics and proof) to the development of the mathematics curriculum, and to conceptions and beliefs of mathematics teachers.

Professor Dr. Wei-Chi Yang (www.radford.edu/~wyang) was born and received his B.S. from Taiwan, and received his Ph.D. in Mathematics from the University of California at Davis in 1988. Since 1991, he started implementing the use of technology in his teaching and research. His original research interest was in the theoretical integration theory and thanks to computer software technologies, he is able to experiment his integration quadratures with his theoretical approaches. Professor Yang has written many papers which demonstrate how technology could make complex and abstract concepts more accessible to students. The topics range from Pre-Calculus, Calculus, to Linear Algebra and Advanced Calculus. He has co-authored a book 'Exploring Mathematics with Mathematics' with Professor Jonathan Lewin. He also had given over 200 international presentations around the world. Professor Yang had a vision in early 1990 that technology will make an impact in the area of Mathematics, thus he founded the Asian Technology Conference in Mathematics (ATCM) (www.atcminc.com) in 1995.
