KLuwak

Hi,

I'm me, often known on-line as Kopi Luwak or kluwak. I'm a research scientist-engineer who mostly works at the interface of RF/wireless phenomena and networking (MAC through application layers, but mostly the bottom half of the OSI stack). My Ph.D. is in computer science and my postdoc work was in electrical and computer engineering.

Besides those topics, I have a moderate level of interest and/or expertise in:

1. Mathematics, especially numerical and combinatorial optimization, logics, types, and proof theory, and statistical methodology.
2. Emergency management, especially with regard to information and communication needs, especially especially in "challenged" and low-infrastructure contexts.
3. Life sciences in general, especially with regard to experimental design and data analysis.
4. Science and technology policy and the interaction between government, "pure" research, the private sector, and actual people.
5. Religion, especially ethics, religious nationalism, group identity, and the intersection with racism and inter-group conflict.
6. Human rights and their (non-)observance in inter- and intranational armed conflict.
7. "Wilderness pursuits," both recreational (such as mountaineering, backpacking, and rock climbing, etc.) and life-critical (such as wilderness medicine and wildland fire management).

Any contributions I've made to Wikipedia over the years reflect personal interests only and I do not in any way speak for any current or former employers or any groups I am or have been connected with.
