About Bill Hinshaw and Cobol Cowboys: Experienced Founder and CEO with a demonstrated history of working in the information technology industry. Proven expertise in systems architect, development, integration and support of mainframe software for banking and state government. Experienced in starting companies for software design, development, support and deliverables. Highly skilled in COBOL, CICS, DB2, VSAM, MQ, Assembler and related mainframe and server products. Expert witness in matters related to systems integration vs. database interfaces. Testified at State of New Jersey Senate Hearings on Unemployment Claims. AI advisory role for debugging & documenting COBOL programs. Strong business professional — attended Indiana University-Purdue University at Indianapolis, Indiana. Appointed Director of Data Processing by Governor of Indiana to implement mainframe computer services. Founded and headquartered in North Texas, Cobol Cowboys provides professionals for legacy COBOL systems and other programming environments. Our name, Cobol Cowboys, was inspired by the movie “Space Cowboys” in which experienced (some retired) astronauts were called back into service to solve a current day problem in outer space. After researching many published articles (both positive and negative) on the future life of COBOL, we came away with renewed confidence in its continued life in the coming years. Since COBOL is still the programming foundation and under-structure used today in most USA and International companies, we founded Cobol Cowboys in North Texas to provide professionals for legacy COBOL Systems and non-COBOL systems. This renewed confidence in COBOL is supported by IBM's strategies to keep COBOL robust and evergreen as a viable programming language today and years to come. These strategies are evidenced by IBM's continued enhancements which allow COBOL and Java to run together on mainframes and to take advantage of the latest industry-driven database products (such as DB2 and SQL). Furthermore, COBOL has been enhanced to develop “object oriented” code in addition to its time-proven legacy code still in use today. These and other programming enhancements offered by IBM keep COBOL a state-of-the-art programming solution. We offer experienced COBOL (and other software) professionals in various vertical markets; including banking, government, insurance, health care, manufacturing, warehousing, transportation and others.

In this week's episode, both of our storytellers strive to be their authentic selves in academia. Part 1: Raul Fernandez dreamed of going to university to study engineering. When he gets to Boston University, he feels unwelcome. Part 2: Cynthia Chapple was continually underestimated by her teachers and struggled with minimizing aspects of herself to be accepted. Dr. Raul Fernandez is a scholar-activist. As a Senior Lecturer at Boston University, he studies, writes, and teaches about inequities in education. As the Board Chair of Brookline for Racial Justice & Equity, he rallies his neighbors in the relentless pursuit of racial and economic justice. In the last few years alone, he researched and wrote a piece that helped topple a monument to white supremacy, created a film series that engaged thousands of participants in challenging dialogues, and trained thousands more in equitable policymaking at institutions in the US and abroad. Dr. Fernandez also served as a member of Brookline Select Board – the first Latinx person elected to that position. During his time there he created a working group to support public housing residents, a Racial Equity Advancement Fund, and a task force to reimagine public safety. He lives with his formidable partner Christina and their three kids in Brookline, and enjoys trips to "big park" and "tiny park" with his adorable toddler Maya. Cynthia Chapple is an innovative scientist, an advocate for black girls and women, and champion of equity. In keeping with this work, she is founder of Black Girls Do STEM, an organization offering exploration of STEM career pathways through hands-on engaging curriculum in the areas of Science Technology, Engineering and Mathematics to middle and high school black girls to expose them to career pathways and empower them to become STEM professionals. Cynthia looks for more ways in which she can act as a conduit exposing young black girls to STEM industries and a diversity, equity and inclusion voice within the STEM workforce space to create welcoming policies, practices and cultures for Black people and women to thrive. As a Black woman in STEM this work is deeply personal and Cynthia draws upon her lived experiences as a result of her intersectional identities to offer ideas and solutions that truly foster belonging and give the opportunity for people to show up as their authentic selves. As a founder she sets strategic focus, foundational policies, practices and culture around the program design and student experience for Black Girls Do STEM. Subsequently she has launched CC Black Lab a research and manufacturing company of cosmetic products with the first brand being produced being Black Velvet SPA. Cynthia received her Bachelor of Chemistry Degree from Indiana University Purdue University at Indianapolis (IUPUI) and her Master of Science in Chemistry from Southern Illinois University Edwardsville (SIUE). She subsequently spent five and a half years as a Research and Development Chemist in the manufacturing industry. She has been a member of both the American Chemical Society and the Society of Cosmetic Chemist for over 5 years combined. Cynthia's superpower is leveraging her expertise and power to dream on behalf of Black liberation. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

This talk will discuss how we engineer trust among agents, humans, and algorithms to develop solutions to significant practical problems, including Trustworthy AI in multiple applications, Resilience in systems, and a framework for Artificial Conscience to control AI, which we extend to system security. Trustworthiness of AI solutions is emerging as a must for the best use of AI. Using our trust system, we have developed metrics for acceptance, explainability, and fairness of AI solutions having humans in the loop. Furthermore, we introduce the concept of Trustability, which captures the probability of a system keeping the required QoS performance under a specific attack tree. Finally, we present our framework for Artificial Conscience, where AI algorithms are controlled by agents who negotiate with each other using our trust engine to output a solution with maximum" Artificial Feeling." This framework can be easily implemented in any AI system where multiple metrics are involved, including system security scenarios. About the speaker: Arjan Durresi is a Professor of Computer Science at Indiana University Purdue University in Indianapolis, Indiana. He has published over 100 papers in journals, over 220 articles in conference proceedings, and twelve book chapters. His research interests include Trust Engineering, System Security, Trustworthy Artificial Intelligence, AI Control, Network Architectures and Protocols, and Quantum Computing. NSF, USD, states, universities, and industry sources funded his research. He was named among the top 2% of scientists on Stanford's list in September 2021and updated in October 2022.

In this episode we discuss the links between religion, faith and giving with David P. King, Karen Lake Buttrey Director of the Lake Institute on Faith & Giving and Associate Professor of Philanthropic Studies at the Lilly Family School on Philanthropy at Indiana University- Purdue University, Indiana. Including:How important a part does faith play in motivating and shaping approaches to giving in the modern world?What role has it played historically?When it comes to faith as a factor in philanthropy, what is most important:Observance of specific religious requirements to give (e.g. tithing, Tzedakah, Zakat)?Broader religious teachings on ethics & responsibility?Attendance at places of worship?A sense of shared religious identity?How do religious teachings on the nature of poverty and justice affect the likelihood of their followers giving and the ways in which they give?Are we seeing a decline in faith in places like the UK and the US, or simply a shift away from organised, collective religion to more informal, individual spirituality? What impact might this have on giving?Are places of worship important in maintaining cultures of giving?To what extent is this because of their religious nature and to what extent is it simply because they are community buildings that bring people together, or act as a location for grassroots/informal activity?At a time when secular community spaces are becoming fewer, do places of worship have an increasingly important role to play as community anchors? Are they embracing this role, and how?How much of the giving that goes towards religion in the US is for the maintenance of religious institutions themselves, and how much gets passed on into wider charitable activities?What role has faith (especially missionary faith) played in shaping the field of international development and humanitarian aid?Does faith still play an important role today? (E.g. given that quite a few major INGOs have religious roots, and are ostensibly still religious orgs)Does the academic study of philanthropy and civil society need to do more in terms of taking into account the role of faith groups?What challenges does this pose? (i.e. Different literatures/concepts, specialist knowledge of the structures of religious orgs required etc?).Related Links:The Lake Institute on Faith and GivingDavid's profile page at the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy, IUPUIDavid's 2017 Conversation article "Why Faith Inspires People to Give"David's blog for Lilly Family School of Philanthropy "Giving 2021: Pandemic lessons and the future of religious giving"David's HistPhil article, "Religion's Role in International Relief and Development: World Vision and the Age of Evangelical Humanitarianism".Philanthropisms podcast episode with David's Lilly Family School of Philanthropy colleague Tyrone McKinley Freeman

Bill Myers Inspires I posted a simple meditation a couple days ago on Facebook "Pause. Reflect. RIP Mr. George Floyd," on the date of his killing one year later. The comments that came from my nearly 5000 Facebook friends regarding George Floyd began with "Career criminal, who committed suicide." from a white, retired Indianapolis Police Officer.

Bill Myers Inspires Chaos and Kairos: Where Do We Go from Here? What is America's history on voting? By examining the significance of this moment in America, we will explore the chaos and the "kairos" with scholar and Pastor Dr. Harrison-Jones to discover the real opportunity America faces. The Reverend Dr. Winterbourne LaPucelle Harrison-Jones is a scholar, author, ecclesial leader, and distinguished Churchman out of the linage of Dr. William Augustus Jones, Dr. James Forbes, Dr. Mordecai Wyatt Johnson, The Reverend Marvin Chandler, and Dr. Howard Thurman. A fifth-generation minister, Dr. Harrison-Jones is widely sought after as a preacher, speaker and workshop facilitator. Reverend Harrison-Jones is a 2006 graduate of Theodore Roosevelt Senior High School in Washington, D.C. and a 2010 graduate of the historic Fisk University in Nashville, Tennessee, where he earned his bachelor's degree in Religious and Philosophical Studies. While at Fisk University, Reverend Harrison-Jones had the distinct opportunity of being mentored by Fisk University President and former United States Secretary of Energy, The Honorable Hazel R. O'Leary, and Dean of the historic Fisk Memorial Chapel, the Reverend Dr. Jason Richard Curry, PhD. In addition to Fisk University and Colgate Rochester Crozer Divinity School, Reverend Harrison-Jones holds degrees and professional certifications from the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy, the Harvard University Graduate School of Education, the Hertie School of Governance in Berlin Germany, and the Universidad de Salamanca in Salamanca, Spain. Reverend Harrison-Jones simultaneously matriculated in two national doctoral programs, earning the Doctor of Ministry from Colgate Rochester Crozer Divinity School and is currently pursuing the PhD in Urban Education from Indiana University Purdue University at Indianapolis (IUPUI). As a scholar, Reverend Harrison-Jones investigates how theological and homiletic resources within Christian traditions are valuable for interpreting and responding to such pressing public issues as economic deprivation, religious bigotry, racism, class inequity, and structural inequality. His credo is shaped by words of noted scholar, theologian and 1926 graduate of Rochester Theological Seminary, now Colgate Rochester Crozer Divinity School, Dr. Howard Thurman, “Don't ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive!” Reverend Harrison-Jones is the esteemed Pastor of the historic Witherspoon Presbyterian Church in Indianapolis, Indiana. https://wpcindy.org ~ More About Bill Myers Inspires ~ Emmy Award-winning actor Bill Myers is an accomplished actor, jazz musician, filmmaker, writer, educator, and speaker.

In this episode: Portable Protein Snacks, 3 solid tips to keep you on track and ways to treat your muscles right for best results in and out of the gym.NUTRITIONIt can be a challenge to get in the right amount of protein each day to maintain or add muscle to help you lose weight or become leaner. Adding one or two high protein snacks to your daily intake can keep your metabolism burning and hunger away! Especially in the late afternoon hours. Here's a few ideas to keep your body fueled throughout the day, the right way!1. Cottage Cheese and Fresh Fruit Have 1/2 cup cottage cheese with 1/2 cup of your favorite fruit.Try some super fruits! Bananas, mixed berries, and any high fiber fruit would do. 2. Jerky (Beef or Turkey or Ostrich ) Choose low-sodium, natural, or lightly-flavored options of various jerky. You'll find turkey, beef even ostrich jerky! The size of most single-serve packs is about one ounce and contains about 9 grams of protein! Plus jerky is chewy and keeps your mouth busy! This is a convenient, portable snack that keeps fresh for months when packed properly.3. Mixed Nuts or Trail Mix Measure it out! Mixed nuts provide an easy way to get a delicious dose of protein in a convenient, shelf-stable package. The best nuts for protein? Almonds and pistachios. Add a few pieces of dried fruit (not too much they can be high in sugar and calories) and maybe a few mini choc chips and there ya go! Even the kids will love it!4. Pumpkin Seeds Pumpkin seeds make a great snack once they’re washed, dried, and roasted. Just 1/2 cup of pumpkin seeds has about 14 grams of protein! Store bought ones may have salt or sugar on them so be sure to check the labels!5. Hard-Boiled Eggs Eggs are one of the best on the go snacks ever! Inexpensive and loaded with nutrients, eggs are one of the best ways to get a good dose of quality protein. Hard boil and pre-peel a dozen at the start of the week, then have them for breakfast or snack. Egg whites are the highest protein while the yolk is the fat. Don't worry about that, because the components in the whites nullify the fats in the yolk so it is a healthy, balanced food!TRAININGMyth #1 Lifting incredibly slowly builds incredibly big muscles. Not necessarily the best structured study to prove this right or wrong, but the University of Alabama conducted a study with two groups of lifters doing a 29-minute workout. One group performed exercises using a 5-second up phase and a 10-second down phase, the other a more traditional approach of 1 second up and 1 second down. The faster group burned 71 percent more calories and lifted 250 percent more weight than the super slow lifters.The problem I have with this study is that the protocol of 1 second up and down is way too fast to be safe or effective. Sure, the faster moves burned more calories, but the slower lifting most likely created a greater muscle response thanks to the time under tension. Sometimes studies done don't tell the whole truth! I teach my clients to use a steady pace of 3 or 4 seconds up and the same down. This becomes a habit and very difficult for them to cheat!If you are an advanced exerciser, you can play with the tempo and time under tension, otherwise the good habits that come from slower steady lifting are worth the time spent!Myth #4 Never exercise a sore muscle. Don't skip that workout, just because you are sore! First, determine how sore you really are. "If your muscle is sore to the touch or the soreness limits your range of motion, it's best that you give the muscle at least another day of rest," says Alan Mikesky, Ph.D., director of the human performance and biomechanics laboratory at Indiana University-Purdue University at Indianapolis. In less severe instances, an "active rest" involving light aerobic activity and stretching, and even light lifting, can help alleviate some of the soreness. "Light activity stimulates bloodflow through the muscles, which removes waste products to help in the repair process," says David Docherty, Ph.D., a professor of exercise science at the University of Victoria in Canada. The real expert says: If you're not sore to the touch and you have your full range of motion, go to the gym. Start with 10 minutes of cycling, then exercise the achy muscle by performing no more than three sets of 10 to 15 repetitions using a weight that's no heavier than 30 percent of your one-rep maximum, says Docherty.Myth #5 Stretching prevents injuries. "Stretching increases flexibility, but most injuries occur within the normal range of motion," says Julie Gilchrist, M.D., one of the study's researchers. "Stretching and warming up have just gone together for decades. It's simply what's done, and it hasn't been approached through rigorous science." The real expert says: Warming up is what prevents injury, by slowly increasing your bloodflow and giving your muscles a chance to prepare for the upcoming activity. To this end, Dr. Gilchrist suggests a thorough warmup, as well as conditioning for your particular sport. Of course, flexibility is a good thing. If you need to increase yours so it's in the normal range (touching your toes without bending your knees, for instance), do your stretching when your muscles are already warm. MOTIVATION1. Complete most important tasks first. Each day, identify the two or three tasks that are the most crucial to complete, and do those (the worst first!) first. Once you’re done, the day has already been a success. You can move on to other things, or you can let them wait until tomorrow. You’ve finished the essential.2. Learn to say “no”. Making a lot of time commitments can teach us how to juggle various engagements and manage our time. This can be a great thing. However, you can easily take it too far. At some point, you need to learn to decline opportunities. Your objective should be to take on only those commitments that you know you have time for and that you truly care about.3. Sleep at least 7-8 hours.Some people think sacrificing sleep is a good way to hack productivity and wring a couple extra hours out of the day. This is not the case. Most people need 7-8 hours of sleep for their bodies and minds to function optimally. You know if you’re getting enough. Listen to your body, and don’t underestimate the value of sleep.Get all the most recent episodes on iTunes or download this episode here: Fit 220: Portable Protein Snacks, 3 Tips to keep you on track and treat your muscles right for best results!

WIHI - A Podcast from the Institute for Healthcare Improvement
Date: October 6, 2016 Featuring: Martha Hayward, IHI Faculty and Patient Advisor Cody Mullen, Doctoral Candidate/Associate Instructor, Indiana University– Purdue University at Indianapolis Robert Doherty, Senior Vice President, Governmental Affairs and Public Policy, American College of Physicians Cheri C. Wilson, MA, MHC, CPHQ, Public Speaker and Trainer — Diversity and Inclusion, Cultural and Linguistic Competence, Health Equity Are patients and family members feeling more positive about the experiences they’re having in the US health care system? Are they feeling more connected to their care teams? With so much attention being paid to improving patient satisfaction scores, and with patient-centered care so central to just about every health care organization’s strategic goals and mission, you’d think the answer would be a resounding yes. But the picture is decidedly mixed, according to recent surveys and many champions of person- and family-centered care (PFCC). Research and anecdotal evidence suggest that too many patients continue to have negative health care experiences — even when providers feel that they’re making improvements and actively engaging patients. We explored the disconnect and the dynamics of the patient experience on the October 6 WIHI: Improving Patient Experience — What's Working, What's Not.
Co-hosts Jan Rutherford and Jim Vaselopulos interview Greg Adams and Blake Miles. Greg was a Special Forces officer, and is now the Co-founder and CEO of Stabilitas, a real-time threat intelligence and communication platform for security professionals working at global organizations. Blake was a Special Forces soldier, and currently is working as the Director of Support for Stabilitas. Greg and his team help safeguard companies and secures travelers with location specific safety information and a lifeline to help, all through their smartphones. Listen in to learn more about how these former Special Forces operators bring military-strength intelligence to corporate security. Key Takeaways [4:24] The Stabilitas team mission is to keep stakeholders safe, communicating risks arising from world conditions. [13:32] Greg had had a learning experience in Afghanistan, where his fundamental assumptions were challenged. Greg said you have to be curious, informed, and confident in your decisions, and always open to new information. [19:27] Greg’s top value is to surround himself with quality people, like Blake. It’s a combination of taking care of the customer, and building a team of people that care about each other. [21:53] Greg deployed to Afghanistan during the financial crisis. The war wasn’t resonating with people who were losing their homes. This event made him want to study the big picture, through empirical economics, which helped him to find data to test big assumptions. Applying this to Stabilitas, they use machine learning to process open source risk data, map it, and dynamically deliver intelligence to a smartphone. [23:39] In the commercial security space, they’re at a confluence of markets between intelligence and geopolitical risk, and communicating that intelligence to security staff, giving them civilian equivalents of military tools. [27:30] Stabilitas is exploring social media. The goal is to demonstrate they’re doing something new, and social media is a new approach to reach security firms. [33:56] Bringing people with different backgrounds onto the team, means Greg had to find similar and trustworthy people with great autonomy and specialized skills. [38:59] Blake recommends Jan’s Crucible cross-pollination of military and executive styles. Bios Greg Adams is passionate about geopolitical risks, empirical research, data analytics, technology, building a team, and getting out in the Pacific Northwest. When he’s not building a great product with the Stabilitas team, or running around in the mountains, you can find him at Stabilitas.io. Greg has an undergraduate degree in physics from West Point, and studied economics and business at Harvard.

What are the core competencies that women offer in the workplace? How can women use this information to better market their skills during promotions and finding a job? Bonita Banducci, a Gender Expert who teaches at Santa Clara University, helps companies find ways to retain women and bring more innovation and competitive advantage to their companies. SHOW SUMMARY Link to Segment 1: Most companies lean toward evaluating their workforce based on male-oriented competencies. What are female-oriented competencies that companies should consider if they want to tap the full potential of their women employees? Find out about a whole category of thinking and skills that women bring that can be used to generate innovation and better solutions to problems. Link to Segment 2: There are core competencies that have a female and male expression. For example, a women will demonstrate being a team player in a different way than a man. Often a women’s way is misinterpreted. What are other competencies that women and men express differently? How can women narrow the divide? How can men shift their perspective on these competencies? Blog Post by our Guest Rise!-as you Lean In! There is a confidence and freedom as well as joy that my women graduate engineering students discover in my Gender and Engineering class at Santa Clara University. The men, too, discover a new way of seeing the world and how to work effectively with differences with Gender Competence, as one student put it, “I feel like I have a strategic advantage.” There is one lesson about an everyday practice that drives women’s ideas and eventually drives women themselves out of organizations and out of engineering, that when understood and managed applying RISE, not only retains women, building confidence and freedom to contribute, but also increases innovation. RISE is a model and formula for having different “competencies” of women and men working together. Relational & Individualistic = Synergy (the whole greater than the sum of the parts) and mutual Empowerment. Many women see the world through a Relational lens of relationship and demonstrate competencies of “connecting the dots” systems thinking, multi-tasking, and sharing information to create new information. Many men see the world through an Individualistic lens of status and independence, that give us traditional competencies of prioritized, linear thinking, focus on one thing at a time, and sharing information only as needed. The everyday practice of playing Devil’s Advocate is the ability to poke holes and find faults using deductive reasoning to bullet proof an idea. As one Individualistic Executive of a local space agency said to me, “We do science here, Devil’s Advocate is science.” Relational people often respond to Devil’s Advocate as an indicator that their idea is not good—and often drop it, sometimes taking it personally that they are not competent. Then they show up to others as not confident and not competent. Point out that you bring another competency, Collaboration or Angel’s Advocate, to build on an idea with “what could make it work” and “what else is possible with the idea,” using inductive reasoning. You frame a competency that is otherwise invisible, unarticulated and unrewarded. You bring a new competency into the organizational culture. You can teach your Devil’s Advocates by insisting, “Before we play Devil’s Advocate, I want to play Angel’s Advocate and bring your best thinking to this.” It will be a new muscle for them. You may have to prime the pump for them, demonstrate what you mean. You can also engage them in teaching you how to stand up to Devil’s Advocate, when that time comes. You will never back down again. The first time I did an exercise to practice both Devil’s Advocate and Angel’s Advocate, two men who had been working on an environmental engineering problem together, came up with a solution they had not thought of before. This drove home, to me, just how foreign Angel’s Advocate collaboration can be. At the space agency, the executive who said “Devil’s Advocate is science,” responded to the exercise with a woman colleague with“we had so much fun with all the new ideas bubbling up, we didn’t even play Devil’s Advocate.” He could see that Devil’s Advocate had been keeping the lid on innovation, people proposing new ideas, realizing they did not want to stand before a firing squad. Indeed, the highest ranking woman, next in line to run the agency, told me she had a new vision for the agency she had only shared with some women because she did not want to stand before the firing squad. With anticipated budget cuts to space projects, she envisioned taking on Homeland Security, Global Warming and Renewable Energy—her secret—until she saw her male colleagues learn to play Angel’s Advocate and could “trust” them with her vision. Business schools are beginning to teach “improv,” responding to ideas with a “yes, and…” to not block ideas. Women need to teach this Relational competency too. Notice that many Relational competencies are what you think is common sense, but they are not common, they are different and can be misunderstood unless you define them as competencies. Bringing all your Relational competencies to the table, speaking about them, pointing out the value and working them together with traditional competencies will have you, your colleagues and your organization RISE.

This panel session was added to the 2015 AAR program only a week before the Annual Meeting in response to the November 13 terrorist attacks in Paris, France. The panel of scholars, whose areas of focus range from interreligious dialogue to political Islam to French secularism to ancient Christianity. They discuss the media, Islamophobia, religious violence, geopolitics, rational actors, and activism. They engage questions including: what are the connections between the Paris attacks, other recent attacks in Europe, and ISIS-inspired attacks in Beirut and Baghdad? What should the role of scholars of religion be in contesting Islamophobia and debating appropriate responses to terrorism? How can scholars of religion help shape attitudes and conversations about Islam, religion and violence in the general public? How might the attacks in Paris, Beirut, and elsewhere open up classroom conversations about broader issues in the study of religion? The panel discussion is followed by a Q&A with the audience. Panel Participants: Sarah Rollens, Rhodes College Stephanie Frank, Columbia College, Chicago Edward E. Curtis, Indiana University-Purdue University, Indianapolis Jerusha Lamptey, Union Theological Seminary Todd Green, Luther College, Presiding This panel was recorded on November 21 at the 2015 Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Religion in Atlanta, GA.
Anthony Montgomery can be currently seen on the small screen as ‘Darryl’ on VH1’s highest rating TV show, “Single Ladies”. He is best known for his role as ‘Travis Mayweather’ on the cult TV phenomenon “Star Trek Enterprise”. Born and raised in Indianapolis, Indiana, Montgomery was introduced to performing in public while singing in the church choir as a child. Several years later he discovered a new performance outlet in the form of freestyle Hip Hop dance, which propelled him to co-create the dance duo, ‘The Bad Boyz’ in the late 80's. After enrolling in college, Montgomery soon discovered his true life's purpose and passion, acting. He began acting while studying at Indiana University-Purdue University. Being one of the few minorities in the Theatre Department, Montgomery was given many opportunities to begin honing his craft. As he appeared in numerous plays, his love for acting grew. With each play, each character manifestation, Montgomery learned more and more about himself and his talent. He knew acting was his life. After gaining practical experience, both on and off stage, he transferred to Ball State University, where he graduated with a B.S. in Performance Theater & Drama.
The networking research community is working to design the Next Generation Internet, which will meet the needs of the twenty-first century. The first requirement for the Next Generation Internet is security. Furthermore, the Internet will include heterogeneous environment, such as cellular and sensor networks. In this talk, I will present our research work related to above mentioned problems and focusing on a new security oriented Internet architecture and security solutions for heterogeneous environments.It should allow receivers to set policies for how and where they receive their information. The Next Generation Internet should be designed for mobile objects. Naming, addressing architecture, and routing have to be such that these objects can move and decide how and where they want to receive their Internet traffic with full rights of privacy of their location, if desired. In this talk, I will present our research work related to above mentioned problems and focusing on Internet architecture, mobile, wireless and security issues.
