We'll also consider Research Group, where he was the architect of the 2.10BSD release and some of the latch-free and non-blocking a principal developer of 4.4BSD and related releases. He led the effort to algorithms WiredTiger implements, as well create an Open Source version of BSD UNIX, which led to the FreeBSD, as other techniques to improve scaling, NetBSD and OpenBSD releases. He co-designed and implemented the overall throughput and latency. Finally, we'll 4.4BSD log-structured file system and was the author of the widely used vi implementation, nvi.
