I appeared on NPR's Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me! in Sep. 2007 and this message from NPR anchor Carl Kasell will soon appear on my home answering machine.
Before joining IBM, he was with AT&T Labs--Research, where he was most recently a Division Manager. Before that, he was a scientist with the Mobios Project at the Matsushita Information Technology Laboratory (MITL, now PINTL. See the Alumni page.) Prior to that, he was a visiting professor at the Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, working with Andy Tanenbaum.
He received his Ph.D degree ('90) from the University of California, Berkeley, working on the Sprite project with Prof. John Ousterhout. He designed and implemented Sprite's transparent migration facility. A bunch of other papers on Sprite can be found at the Sprite archives.
He was an undergraduate ('84) in the Computer Science Department at Yale and is hit up for donations far more often than he ever thought possible. The 2005 department reunion was lots of fun.
Way back when ('80), he went to South Brunswick (NJ) High School.
