Dr. Byte is a Ph.D. candidate in Computer Engineering and an instructor of Computer Engineering at a major university. He received his B.S. and M.S. in Computer Engineering in 1994 and 1997 respectively. For his M.S., he worked with a real time bit error rate simulator, and developed a next generation real time hardware system for bit error rate simulations. He has developed a 16 bit RISC microprocessor in VHDL in a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) able to run compiled 'C' code. His research interests include developing a taxonomy of attacks and applying it to different network environments. He has co-authored 3 papers on IEEE 802.11 and IPv6.
