Daniel T. Ling retired from Microsoft in March 2007.

As corporate vice president, Daniel T. Ling oversaw the Redmond
laboratory of Microsoft Research. Microsoft Research is 
dedicated to a broad program of basic and applied research in 
computer science and related areas. The laboratory's mission is 
to advance the state of the art, develop new technologies which 
benefit Microsoft customers, and engage with the worldwide 
research community. 

Ling served as director of the Redmond laboratory from 1995 until 
his promotion to vice president in April 2000. During that time, 
the Redmond laboratory grew over threefold to include research 
in new areas such as networking, data mining, computer-mediated 
collaboration, streaming media, devices and new development 
tools. 

Ling joined Microsoft Research in March 1992 as a senior 
researcher in the area of user interfaces and computer graphics. 
He was one of the founders of the laboratory.
