ROUND ROCK, Texas, Dec. 31 (UPI) -- U.S. computer giant Dell said Wednesday two top executives were departing as it reshaped the company to reflect how customers use computers.

The company said Chief Marketing Officer Mark Jarvis and President of Global Operations Michael Cannon would leave in January, the Austin, Texas, American-Statesman reported.

Dell also said it would structure its business around large enterprises, public customers and small to medium-sized businesses, the newspaper said.

Dell is struggling to return to the top of the computer market, having slipped behind Hewlett-Packard Co., in recent years.

Dell's current head of commercial desktop and notebook products Jeff Clarke will replace Gannon. Erin Nelson, formerly the head of the company's marketing efforts in Europe, will replace Jarvis.

Chief Information Officer Steve Schuckenbrock was chosen to lead the large enterprise business, while the head of American business Paul Bell will lead the public business division. Steve Felice, the head of Dell operations in Asia, will take over the small and medium business division, the company said.
