Über Autor(innen)

Billimoria Kaiwan N.:
Kaiwan N. Billimoria taught himself BASIC programming on his dad's IBM PC back in 1983. He was programming in C and Assembly on DOS until he discovered the joys of Unix, and by around 1997, Linux! Kaiwan has worked on many aspects of the Linux system programming stack, including Bash scripting, system programming in C, kernel internals, device drivers, and embedded Linux work. He has actively worked on several commercial/FOSS projects. His contributions include drivers to the mainline Linux OS and many smaller projects hosted on GitHub. His Linux passion feeds well into his passion for teaching these topics to engineers, which he has done for well over two decades now. He's also the author of Hands-On System Programming with Linux, Linux Kernel Programming (and its Part 2 book) and Linux Kernel Debugging. It doesn't hurt that he is a recreational ultrarunner too.Aivazian Tigran:
Tigran Aivazian has a Master's degree in Computer Science and a Master's degree in Theoretical Physics. He has written BFS and Intel Microcode Update drivers which became part of the official Linux kernel. He is the author of a book “Linux 2.4 Kernel Internals” which is available in several languages at the Linux Documentation Project. He worked at VERITAS as a Linux Kernel Architect, improving the kernel and teaching OS internals. For the Bible societies Tigran produced scholarly Bible editions in Hebrew, Greek, Syriac, Slavonic and ancient Armenian. Recently he published “The British Study Edition of the Urantia Papers”. He is currently working on the foundations of Quantum Mechanics on a branch of physics called Quantum Infodynamics.
