Consulting: Vladimir Dergachev

I enjoy a challenge and delight in working on science-intensive projects. Consulting is way for me to participate in projects too complicated for casual advice and/or requiring commitment to a particular deadline.

My expertise includes the following areas:

• Mathematics:
  • I have a very strong background in all facets of mathematics.
  • I received Ph.D. (2000) from University of Pennsylvania for work in functional analysis and algebra.
  • My interests include algebra, functional analysis, statistics and stochastic processes.
• Physics:
  • I have joined the Ph.D. program at the University of Michigan Physics deparment in September 2003.
  • I currently work in experimental physics on an effort to detect gravitational waves as part of LIGO collaboration.
• Computer science:
  • I have always held true that technical expertise should be matter of course for any sentient being.
  • I have wide experience with both software and hardware aspects of using computers.
  • I have worked with low-level code (down to machine language and verilog) and with high-level scripting languages.
  • I wrote efficient programs that shared 99.9% code between Windows and Unix versions.
  • I was awarded MA in Computer Science by University of Pennsylvania in 1997.
  • I maintain several Open Source projects (most notably GATOS and Ps-i).
  • My interests include computer languages and separation of work between computers and humans.
