Statement: I state hereby that I have read and understood the Citizendium Statement of Fundamental Policies and I support and endorse it.

BIO: I have earned my doctoral degree at the Eötvös Loránd University, Budapest, in computational geometry. For 15 years, I lectured there various discrete and numerical mathematics subjects, and computer science. For extended periods I visited Kyoto University (working on networked information systems) and the University Bonn (doing operation research: optimum routing, Steiner trees, traveling salesman type problems). Since 1990 I have been working in industrial research in various fields, like digital signal processing, electric circuit simulation and design, large-scale optimizations, digital watermarking, tamper resistant software, digital rights management, random number generation and testing, and various other areas in information security. Since 2002 I have been working at Seagate Research in Pittsburgh, leading research projects related to storage security. I have published 35 scientific papers and conference presentations, I am the author or co-author of 11 patents, and over 36 published patent applications.
