    Przedstawienie Sylwetki Steve`A Wozniak`A

    Uniwersytet Wrocławski Wydział Prawa, Administracji i Ekonomii Błażej Tymowicz Przedstawienie sylwetki Steve`a Wozniak`a Wrocław 2009 1. Krótka informacja biograficzna Stephen Gary "Woz" Wozniak (ur. 11 sierpnia 1950 r. w San José, Stany Zjednoczone) - amerykański wynalazca polskiego pochodzenia (jego ojciec jest Polakiem)1. Już od dziecka był zafascynowany matematyką i komputerami. Nieraz zagadnienia matematyczne tak go pochłaniały, że prawie nie reagował na otoczenie – pomagało dopiero potrząśnięcie przez matkę. To zamiłowanie do nauk ścisłych sprawiło, że od dziecka chciał zostać inżynierem.2 Jeden z trzech założycieli firmy informatycznej Apple Inc. W 1972 r. rzucił Uniwersytet w Berkley aby w latach 1973-1976 pracował w firmie Hewlett-Packard, która nie jednak nie była zainteresowana komputerami tworzonymi przez niego i Steve`a Jobsa w przydomowym garażu. W tym samym czasie zaczął współpracować z Johnym Draperem, który pracował nad nielegalnym urządzeniem „blue box”. Pozwalało ono wykonywać darmowe połączenia zamiastowe i zagraniczne, wykorzystując również gwizdek z płatków śniadaniowych, stąd pseudonim Drapera „ Captain Crunch”. Jak wspomina Draper, Wozniak pierwszy telefon wykonał do Papieża, gdyż jak sądził „chciał się wyspowiadać”. Później wspólnie dołączyli do grupy phreaker`ów (phreaker - osoba trudniąca się łamaniem zabezpieczeń sieci telefonicznych, najczęściej celem dzwonienia za darmo), którzy modyfikowali centrale telefoniczne tworząc z nich niejako wnętrza pierwszych komputerów. Podczas pracy w HP spotkał Steve`a Jobs`a, który pomagał mu sprzedawać blue-boxy. Po okresie popularności blue-box`ów Wozniak stał się członkiem nieformalnego stowarzyszenia „Homebrew Computer Club” i zaczął pracować nad Apple I. Uczęszczał na spotkania wspólnie z Jobs`em- on miał smykałkę do marketingu i zmotywował Wozniaka do wspólnej pracy, gdyż jak sam twierdził „nie był nawet blisko bycia tam dobrym inżynierem jak Wozniak”.

    Amelio, Wozniak Seek to Raise $100M, Buy Technology Company by Brian Womack

    Amelio, Wozniak Seek to Raise $100M, Buy Technology Company By Brian Womack Monday, January 30, 2006 Three former Apple Computer Inc. executives have started a Newport Beach company that’s looking to raise more than $100 million through an initial public offering with a twist. The executives, Apple cofounder Steve Wozniak, former chief executive Gilbert Amelio and Ellen Hancock, Apple’s technology chief under Amelio, have formed a "blank check" company, Acquicor Technology Inc. Acquicor hopes to use proceeds from a share offering to buy a technology company. Specifically, the Apple alums want to find a company that sells products or services in the area of “convergence” of computers and consumer electronics. They’re putting about $2 million of their own money into Acquicor. Amelio, who has a Newport Beach home, is the local tie. He sits on the research advisory board of the Center of Embedded Computer Systems at the University of California, Irvine. He’s also a director of Newport Beach‐based Newport Opticom Inc., an investment of Amelio's Sienna Ventures in Sausalito. In 2001, Amelio opened the Southern California office for Sienna. Amelio's time in Orange County goes back to the 1980s, when he was an executive at what became Newport Beach‐based Conexant Systems Inc. Acquicor hopes to raise $102 million. No date has been set for the offering. Special Purpose The executives are looking to tap into interest for blank check companies, sometimes referred to as a "special purpose acquisition company." In this case, the founders themselves are the likely draw. Amelio, Wozniak Seek to Raise $100M, Buy Technology Company | Orange County Bus..

    The Fifth HOPE Speakers List Speakers, Talks, and Panels Draft As of June 24, 2004

    The Fifth HOPE Speakers List Speakers, Talks, and Panels Draft as of June 24, 2004. Please get updated information at the conference. AS/400: Lifting the Veil of Obscurity StankDawg The AS/400 system from IBM is a powerful system that is in widespread use. Despite that, it is difficult to find information on it or learn about it from any school. A general overview of its design and the architecture of the OS will be presented. This will then be tied into fundamental computing knowledge to show where “interesting” data can be found and where possible weaknesses are in the system. Saturday 1700, Area “B” Automotive Networks Nothingface This presentation provides an introduction to the electronic networks present on late model automobiles. These networks will be described loosely following the OSI model of network- ing. Common uses of these networks will be presented and the privacy implications of some uses will be questioned. The presentation will conclude with an introduction to OpenOtto, a free software and hardware project implementing the network protocols previously de- scribed. Friday 2100, Area “B” Bloggers at the DNC Brad Johnson The Democratic National Convention has become a sclerotic, television-driven celebrity pa- rade. This year bloggers — aka hacker journalists — are being invited onto the floor to shake things up. Can the Internet bring democracy back to the mother of all Democratic Party shindigs? The panel will talk about what is planned — from WiFi to video blogging — and how you can get involved, in Boston or remotely. Friday 1800, Area “B” Building Hacker Spaces Binary, Count Zero, Freqout, Gweeds, Javaman, Mangala, Shardy This is a panel discussion on how to build and maintain a hacker space, hosted by repre- sentatives of the Philadelphia Walnut Factory, the Hasty Pastry (Cambridge), New Hack City (San Francisco), PUSCII (Utrecht), ASCII (Amsterdam), the L0pht (Boston), and the Hacker Halfway House (Brooklyn).

Kabay, PhD, CISSP WELCOME Welcome to the 2004 edition of the Information Security Year in Review (IYIR) project. In 1993 and 1994, I was an adjunct professor in the Institute for Government Informatics Professionals in Ottawa, Canada under the aegis of the University of Ottawa. I taught a one-semester course introducting information security to government personnel and enjoyed the experience immensely. Many of the chapters of my 1996 textbook, _The NCSA Guide to Enterprise Security_ published by McGraw-Hill were field-tested by my students. In 1995, I was asked if I could run a seminar for graduates of my courses to bring them up to date on developments across the entire field of information security. Our course had twenty students and I so enjoyed it that I continued to develop the material and teach the course with the NCSA (National Computer Security Association; later called ICSA and then eventually renamed TruSecure Corporation, its current name) all over the United States, Canada, Europe, Asia and the Caribbean. After a few years of working on this project, it became obvious that saving abstracts in a WordPerfect file was not going to cut it as an orderly method for organizing the increasing mass of information that I was encountering in my research.

The wizardry of Woz October 17, 2006 Next Steve Wozniak tells us why he left Apple Computer, the company he founded, in his new book, iWoz. AFTER the US festivals and graduating from Berkeley * I went back to Apple as an engineer. I didn't want to be an executive. I wanted just to design circuits and apply clever ideas. But it was weird because I was in the media mainstream and had so much other stuff to do. I was called by the press and computer groups, and I was working on philanthropic projects like the San Jose Ballet and The Tech, a San Jose computer museum. I could come up with an architecture idea - such as speeding up the processor five times - but other engineers designed the chips. I felt it wasn't critical for me to be there, even though I loved Apple. I was working in the Apple II division after the Apple III project was closed, so the engineers from that department just gravitated around me. It was fun. And there were cool people with cool projects starting in my building. On the next floor down from me they were finishing up the Apple IIc. This was as small as today's laptops except it plugged it into a wall. I thought it was a beautiful computer, my favourite one to this day. One of the engineers was Joe Ennis, the kind of guy I love who's so enthusiastic and passionate about the products he's working on and where they can go and what he could do with them.

    Oral History of Allen Baum

    Oral History of Allen Baum Interviewed by: Brock, David C. Hsu, Hansen Recorded July 18, 2016 Mountain View, CA CHM Reference number: X7848.2017 © 2017 Computer History Museum Oral History of Allen Baum Brock: Well, great. Well, Allen, thanks again for coming and sitting with us today and participating. I thought we could begin with just when and where you were born and if we could talk about your family of origin. Baum: I was born on the East Coast. And we lived in River Edge, but I was technically born in Hackensack, New Jersey. It's just across the Hudson River, a few miles across the Hudson River from Manhattan. My father was from Brooklyn, and a lot of the family was there. My mother was from, originally from Berlin, and eventually she settled in Mount Vernon. And my parents met each other at a, I think a New Year's Eve party, and it turns out that my mother's family and my father's family are related through another marriage. Brock: <laughs> Baum: So there's-- there's sort of three families all in this kind of triangle, all married to each other. So I have cousins all over Manhattan on both sides of the family who all know each other and actually hang out together sometimes. Brock: And was that family connection in kind of the New York City area? Or did that go to back to Germany also? Baum: No. Brock: Okay. Baum: There was-- there was no one left in Germany, to say the least.
