From 1999 to 2004, I was Head of the Computer Laboratory, and in January 2004 I became Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Research. The PVC job involves co-ordinating research policy (including IPR!), providing the academic oversight of the handling of research grants and contracts, interacting with industrial sponsors and interacting with UK government on research and third stream funding.
 

I have taught courses in communications, introductory hardware design and computer systems modelling.

Since 1985 I have been a Fellow of Christ's College, and until 2002 was Director of Studies in Computer Science at Christ's.

A brief bio:

I stayed on at the Computer Laboratory and have been involved in networking/operating system research ever since. I have supervised about 25 completed PhDs.

I was a co-founder of Nemesys Research Limited which exploited the results of research work done in the department, producing hardware and software to allow cost effective video connection to ATM networks. Nemesys was acquired in 1996 by FORE Systems.  I later cofounded CPlane Inc which exploited other work in the Department concerned with network control.
