You have hit upon my personal website where I keep my musings, publications, CV and other bits of information I want to share.
Paramecium: Curious about the name? It is a fresh water protozoan but also the name of an operating system I built as part of my doctoral thesis. At the time it was a cute pun on Amoeba, a system I had worked on before my own. By the time I was no longer a starving student and decided to setup my own domain name (back in 1998) this was one of the few names that was still available.
About me: I recently joined AMD as a Senior Fellow where I run the software technology office. Before that I spent almost 9 years at IBM T.J. Watson Research Center where I worked on (secure) platform foundations and virtualization.
Contact me: The best way to get a hold of me is to send email to If you are looking for my PGP key, it is available here.
A day in the office: experimenting with a new piece of equipment.
