        | Industrial AffiliationsI have tried to remain pure in my research. NDA's
          have a negative affect on my ability to profess about any topic.
          Although I have not founded any startup companies (yet), I do have
          some involvement.
            IBM I have
              maintained a close contact with IBM's T.J. Watson Research Lab for
              several decades. A half dozen of my PhD students worked there and
              over a dozen of my MA students.
            Trellis-Photonics
              While at Hebrew University, I did some work on Optical
              Computing along with Prof. A. Agranat, who then went on to found a
              company. Although I have no real financial stake in the company, I
              have a strong emotional tie to it and think their technology is
              great.
            Fasken,
              Martineau and DuMoulin As a good citizen, I also do my share
              of legal consulting (actually not very often). My most recent job
              was for this legal firm.     |  |  |
