Paul M. Horn (born August 16, 1946) is an American computer scientist and solid state physicist who has made contributions to pervasive computing, pioneered the use of copper and self-assembly in chip manufacturing, and he helped manage the development of deep computing, an important tool that provides business decision makers with the ability to analyze and develop solutions to very complex and difficult problems.[2]
Horn was elected a member of the National Academy of Engineering in 2007 for leadership in the development of information technology products, ranging from microelectronics to supercomputing.
Horn has, at various times, been Senior Vice President of the IBM Corporation and executive director of Research. While at IBM, he initiated the project to develop Watson, the computer that competed successfully in the quiz show Jeopardy!.[3]
He is currently a New York University (NYU) Distinguished Scientist in Residence and NYU Stern Executive in Residence. He is also a professor at NYU Tandon School of Engineering.[4] In 2009, he was appointed as the Senior Vice Provost for Research at NYU.

Hutchison Medal from the University of Rochester, 2002[2]
Distinguished Leadership award from the New York Hall of Science, 2000[2]
Bertram Eugene Warren Award from the American Crystallographic Association, 1988[2]
