Previously, I was Project Manager for the HPL-Israel Systems Software Project, which looked at systems-level software and issues for the HP Indigo and HP Scitex presses.

I led the HPL-Israel Document Processing and Understanding Project. We made scanned documents more useful, and the first fruits of our research, the HP Document system, were released in the LaserJet 3200. The HPD browser is largely based on the UC Berkeley Digital Library Project's Multivalent Document concept.

I was a member of the Storage Systems Program (SSP), and worked on the AutoRAID project. At U.C. Berkeley I worked with the Network of Workstations Project on the xFS file system. I also worked with the Mariposa project on distributed database systems.
