Welcome to my home page.
Professional I used to be a graduate student in the CMU School of Computer Science working with Manuela Veloso within the Interdisciplinary Program of Algorithms, Combinatorics and Optimization. My main area of research is "Cross-fertilization between AI, CS Theory and Operations Research."
In Spring 96 I presented the Thesis Proposal on that topic, on May 28, 97 I defended the THESIS on Hybrid Algorithms for On-Line Search and Combinatorial Optimization Problems. Here is a list of selected papers.
I also enjoy "smart" hackin' from GUI to animations of efficient algorithms. Here is the REF to the Page of Snapshots taken from my Software Packages.
If you are interested in my on-line resume for industry(HTML), or resume for academia(Postscript), you may get one.

May, 97 I got a job at the division of located in San Mateo, California. The job concerns planning and scheduling (off-line, on-line, real-time), constraint satisfaction and optimization with applications to manufacturing.
In Spring98 I joined - a start-up specializing in Print Automation, where I was architecting Supply Chain Planning.
In Spring99 I joined - a new sparkling IPO specializing in eCommerce in general and configuration in particular, where I was a Staff Architect.
In June 2000 I launched Akonite as a CEO of a start-up focused on advanced technologies of Supply Chain and Design Planning Optimization, eProcurement and Strategic Sourcing. Akonite implemented a solution to one of the most controversial problems of Manufacturing Modeling, namely the separation/unification of BOMs and Routings. Akonite also solved a long-standing problem of bundle and near-bundle recognition with hierarchical inheritance and a bunch of other breakthroughs.
