I'm Yiannis Papadopoulos and I've been using C since 2001. In 2003-2004 I found the comp.lang.c in Usenet and became a regular reader, but not so regular contributor. I hold a Ph.D. in Computer Science from Texas A&M University (http://http://engineering.tamu.edu/cse/). During my studies I specialized in High Performance Computing, working under Dr. Lawrence Rauchwerger on STAPL ((http://parasol.tamu.edu/groups/rwergergroup/research/stapl/).
