Stephen Andriole (born October 22, 1949) is an American information technology professional and professor at Villanova University[1] who has designed and developed a variety of interactive computer-based systems for industry and government, from positions in academia (Professor, Chairman, R&D Center Director), government (Director of Cybernetics Technology at DARPA) and industry (CIO, CTO, SVP, Director and CEO).
He is well known for the design and development of a global crisis warning system—the Early Warning & Monitoring System—whose output appeared in President Ronald Reagan's Daily Briefing Book. His research portfolio while at DARPA included early funding of the MIT Architecture Machine Group now known as the MIT Media Lab, research in artificial intelligence at Yale University and Carnegie-Mellon University, computer simulation, computer-aided decision analysis and computer-based crisis management.[2] At DARPA, he funded one of the first research programs in counter-terrorism crisis management.
Andriole is also well known for the design and development of the United States' first totally on-line masters program in information systems MSIS, with the support of Alfred P. Sloan Foundation while at Drexel University. He was also the principal architect of the investment strategy of Safeguard Scientifics, Inc. (NYSE: SFE) that led to multiple Initial Public Offerings (IPOs) of Internet companies with a total market capitalization of over $100B.
He is known through the publication of over 30 books and 500 articles in information systems engineering, defense command and control, interactive systems design and development, human–computer interaction, venture investing, technology due diligence, social media, emerging technology and information technology.
He is a Fellow of the Cutter Consortium, was a charter member of the U.S. government’s Senior Executive Service (SES), received the Defense Meritorious Civilian Service Award for his work at DARPA, and was awarded an Honorary Doctorate from La Salle University in 2000. He currently holds the Thomas G. Labrecque Chair of Business Technology at Villanova University's School of Business where he teaches strategic technology, innovation, business consulting, entrepreneurialism and technology management.[2]
Government
Andriole was the Director of the Cybernetics Technology Office (CTO) at DARPA where he managed a program of research and development that led to a number of scientific and technological advances in the broad-based information, decision and computing sciences. While at DARPA, he funded the development of spatial data management and multimedia systems, decision support systems, computer-aided simulation and training systems, and intelligent technology-based command & control systems. He funded MIT’s Architecture Machine Group, which evolved into the MIT Media Lab. The CTO program also contributed to applications of the Arpanet, interactive training simulations, such as SIMNET, and a host of artificial intelligence-based applications.[2]
Industry
While at Decisions & Designs, Inc., Andriole designed and developed interactive computer-based resource allocation, forecasting and decision-making systems for the federal government[3] and implemented an interactive system for monitoring the interactions among nations, a system that was originally funded by DARPA as part of his Ph.D. dissertation research, and whose output was published in President Reagan’s Daily Briefing Book. Andriole was the Chief Technology Officer and Senior Vice President for Technology Strategy at CIGNA Corporation, a global insurance and financial services company, where he was responsible for the enterprise information architecture, computing standards, the technology research & development program, data security, as well as the overall alignment of enterprise information technology investments with CIGNA’s multiple lines of business. He was the Chief Technology Officer and Senior Vice President of Safeguard Scientifics, Inc. (NYSE: SFE) where he was responsible for identifying technology trends, translating that insight into the Safeguard investment strategy, and leveraging trends analyses with the Safeguard partner companies. Andriole directly participated in raising nearly $1B for Safeguard and its companies.[2]
Entrepreneur, investor and director
Andriole founded International Information Systems (IIS), Inc., which designed interactive systems for a variety of corporate and government clients. IIS specialized in requirements analysis and prototyping, the design of user-computer interfaces, and software systems evaluation. He also founded TechVestCo, Inc., a company that provided consulting around technology optimization. Andriole also helped fund multiple companies as an Angel Investor, served as a Director for LiquidHub and served on the Board of Directors of the Ben Franklin Technology Center of Southeastern Pennsylvania for nearly a decade, among other public and private companies. He is a Director of Coriell Life Sciences, Inc.
Academia
Andriole was a (tenured, full) Professor of Information Systems and Electrical & Computer Engineering at Drexel University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He conducted applied research in information and software systems engineering, principally through the Center for Multidisciplinary Information Systems Engineering, which he founded and directed. While at Drexel University he designed and implemented the nation’s first totally on-line masters program in information systems (MSIS). The program was featured in the nationally broadcast PBS Special "net.learning."[4] He was a Professor and Chairman of the Department of Information Systems & Systems Engineering at George Mason University where he held the George Mason Institute Endowed Chair. The ISSE department was home to 30 professors and had an annual external sponsored research budget of over $5 million. Several research centers were established in the department during this time including the Center for Computer Security, the Center for Software Engineering and the Center for Command, Control, Communications & Intelligence (C4I).
Andriole is currently the Thomas G. Labrecque Professor of Business Technology at the Villanova School of Business, where he teaches in the undergraduate and MBA programs. He teaches Emerging Business Technologies, Technology as a Strategic Lever, Strategic Information Technology and Innovation & Entrepreneurialism.[2]
