I have a particular interest in computer networking. My first encounter with computers was programming a Stantec Zebra at university in 1962. I started work as a hardware logic designer in 1965 and became involved in communications systems in 1968. I moved into network consultancy in 1975 and was involved in work on Ethernet connectivity hardware for mainframes from 1981. From 2000, I worked on the design and commissioning of resilient networks for very large Internet server sites.
