I  retired from ICL  in 1998 after 36 years in the IT industry.

Initially I  worked part time with ICL, as a Fellow Emeritus, covering engineering, research issues and academic liaison.  This however has now become a very nominal activity as ICL metamorphoses into a section of Fujitsu and I extended my leisure activities; see below.

I am also a Visiting Professor at the University of Southampton  but this is going the way of my ICL activities. 

I was the  Chairman of the EPSRC  IT&C Evaluation  committee in 1998,1999 & 2000.  I am on the EPSRC College and still regularly review research papers
