Dr. Richard W. Linderman, a member of the scientific and professional cadre of senior executives, is the Senior Scientist for Advanced Computing Architectures, Information Directorate, Air Force Research Laboratory, Rome, N.Y. He is responsible for initiating, planning, coordinating, evaluating and conducting research and development in advanced computing architectures to enhance Air Force capabilities. This area includes high performance computers, embedded computer architectures, fault tolerant architectures, adaptive architectures, distributed architectures, and next generation architectures based on quantum, biological, photonic or nanoscale components. He supports the director in technical reviews and assessments of programs and new study areas, and interacts with other Air Force and government agencies in matters relating to advanced computing architectures.
Dr. Linderman was commissioned as a second lieutenant in May 1980. Upon completing four years of graduate studies, he entered active-duty, teaching computer architecture courses and leading related research at the Air Force Institute of Technology. He was assigned to Rome Air Development Center in 1988, where he led surveillance signal processing architecture activities. In 1991, he transitioned from active-duty to civil service as a senior electronics engineer at Rome Laboratory, becoming a principal engineer in 1997. During these years, he pioneered three dimensional packaging of embedded architectures and led the Department of Defense community exploring signal and image processing applications of high performance computers. Dr. Linderman holds six U.S. patents and has published more than 60 journal, conference and technical papers.
