Inductive Automation, ICC 2019

Finalist, same conference, same body of work.

West Virginia State University

One of two degrees completed in 1996, alongside the associate in electrical engineering technology. The undergraduate research that came with it was in number theory, on fast factorisation of large primes. No graduate degree, then or since.

National Institute of Technology

Completed the same year as the bachelor's. This is the one the first decade of the career was built on: power distribution, central-office plant and gas transmission infrastructure, from 1996.

NASA

Number theory: algorithms for fast factorisation of large primes, aimed at RSA public-key cryptography. The work helped start the Great Internet Mersenne Prime Search.

BICSI

Held through the Lucent years. BICSI is the standards body for telecommunications distribution design: distribution frames, structured cabling, pathways and spaces, grounding and bonding. The certification lapsed; the work did not stop.

Federal Communications Commission

Not maintained, because no position ever required the certificate. The radio and telephony knowledge it covered was used throughout the telecom years, including the RF microwave work at Columbia Gas.

Various

Held during the telecom years alongside platform training on the Lucent 5ESS and the APX-8000, MaxTNT and Stinger remote-access concentrators.

United States Army

Enlisted.

For the right role and team. Currently in Bardstown, Kentucky.
