Brian Haberman Applied Physics Laboratory & Department of Computer Science Johns Hopkins University Baltimore, MD

Brief Bio

I recently received (August 2011) my Ph.D. in Computer Science from Johns Hopkins University. I am currently employed as a Principal Research Scientist at the JHU Applied Physics Laboratory. I am very active in the Internet Engineering Task Force, the standards body that defines the protocols that form the foundation of the Internet.
