Computer scientist

Liuba Shrira is a professor of computer science at Brandeis University, whose research interests primarily involve distributed systems. Shrira is accredited with having coined the phrase "promise" when referring to the completion (or failure) of an asynchronous operation and its resulting value for the JavaScript programming language

Shrira received her PhD from Technion. She is affiliated with the MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory. Previously, she was a researcher in the MIT Programming Methodology Group (1986–1997), a visiting researcher at Microsoft Research (2004–2005), and a visiting professor at Technion (2010–2011).

She is a member of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), which has recognized her as a Distinguished Scientist in 2009, and the IEEE Computer Society.

Shrira was one of the founding members of the Systers mailing list for women in computing.
