Ivan Krstić - Director of Security Architecture for the OLPC project
This month we have a fantastic opportunity to see what OLPC is all
about from a member of the OLPC team.
Ivan is a software architect and researcher currently on leave from
Harvard University. Prior to joining OLPC, he served as director of
research at the Medical Informatics Laboratory at Zagreb Children's
Hospital, developing software infrastructure for wide-scale digital
healthcare. He is deeply involved in open-source and free software,
notably as an administrator of the Ubuntu Server Team and co-author of
the best-selling Official Ubuntu Book, and specializes in architecture
and security of large distributed systems. He has consulted on both
matters for some of the largest websites on the Internet.
Ivan will share with us insights into the OLPC project that you just
can't get anywhere else. He's prepared to tell us about the
technology, security, science and anything else we want to know about
the project.
Ivan is traveling from Cambridge, MA to Detroit specifically to be at
our meeting. This is our chance fill the auditorium and show Ivan how
strong the open source community is in south east Michigan.
