Matthew Dillon, Co-Founder and Principal Engineer, Backplane, Inc. A lifelong adherent to open standards and open source technology development, Matthew Dillon has been closely involved with the development of the FreeBSD operating system over the past decade. Recent releases of FreeBSD have incorporated Matt’s work in the areas of the VM system (virtual memory), security, compression algorithms and others. Matt has written several relational databases in the past 10 years. In 1994, Matt co-founded Best Internet, one of the first ISPs in the San Francisco Bay Area. Other ISPs not utilizing open source standards could not adapt their technology quickly enough to support the new business processes their rapid growth suddenly required. Best was purchased by Verio and eventually acquired by NTT DoCoMo, Japan. Read an Interview with Matt on OSnews.com. Read an article by Matt about Virtual Memory on DaemonNews.org.
