Unix On My Mind

Abstract

Unix and the corresponding philosophy continue to support a vibrant community of software, network, and scientific researchers, and is a powerful force in the commercial world. But in the area of security, despite numerous experiments, widespread deployment of better security has all but stopped.

Bill Cheswick
Lumeta

Ches started using Unix extensively about 20 years ago. He subsequently had the privilege of working in the Unix room at Bell Labs with many of the people who invented Unix, C, and most of the related philosophy. Subsequently, he has coauthored very Unix-based software that's been used by Lumeta to map intranets and the Internet.
