Biography

I am the maintainer of the Linux kernel’s core power management subsystem. I work at the University of Warsaw, Faculty of Physics, as a Senior Lecturer. I have been working at the university for over 7 years teaching IT and programming and administering computer systems. I also work for SUSE Labs, Novell Inc., as a kernel developer. I have been actively working on the Linux kernel since 2005, mostly on the suspend and hibernate subsystem as well as on power management in general. I also developed the set of user space hibernate utilities called uswsusp that nowadays is widely used by Linux distributions. I am the maintainer of it and a few other PM-related utilities, including the suspend utility called s2ram. Apart from my university lecturer’s speaking experience I was a speaker at multiple conferences, recently at the Linux Symposium 2009 and the Kernel Summit in 2008 and 2009.
