Ulf Wiger
Uber Erlang programmer and CTO
Erlang Solutions Ltd
Ulf Wiger became one of the first commercial users of Erlang (certainly
the first in North America) when he bought a license in 1993. At the
time, he was busy designing disaster response systems in Alaska. In
1996, he joined Ericsson and became Chief Designer of the AXD 301
development. At nearly 2 million lines of Erlang code, AXD 301 is the
most complex system ever built in Erlang, and probably the most complex
commercial system built in any functional language.
In recent years, Ulf has been involved in several products based on the
AXD 301 architecture, and has been an active member of the Open Source
Erlang community. In February 2009, Ulf began his new job as CTO of
Erlang Solutions Ltd.

companies not previously associated with the language. In this track we
get to listen to the experiences of users better known for their
association with other technologies rather than Erlang.
