Ambjorn Naeve (http://kmr.nada.kth.se/people/ambcv.html or http://www.nada.kth.se/ ~amb) has a background in mathematics and computer science and received his PhD in computer science from KTH in 1993. He is presently coordinator of research on interactive learning environments and the Semantic Web at the Centre for user-oriented Information technology Design (CID; http://cid.nada.kth.se) at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH; http://www.kth.se) in Stockholm, where he heads the Knowledge Management Research group (KMR; http://kmr.nada.kth.se). Ambjörn Naeve has been involved with research and development of interactive learning environments at CID since he initiated the Garden of Knowledge project there in 1996. He has taught mathematics at KTH since 1967, and during the last two decades he has headed the development of a multitude of tools for ICT-enhanced mathematics education (http:// kmr.nada.kth.se/math). Ambjörn Naeve is also a well-known industry consultant with extensive experience in various forms of modeling for software engineering and business applications. He has invented the concept browser Conzilla (http://www.conzilla.org) and has developed a modeling technique (based on UML) called Unified Language Modeling (ULM; http://kmr.nada.kth.se/cm) that has been designed in order to “draw how we talk about things,” that is, to depict conceptual relationships in a linguistically coherent way.
