Linux Plumbers Conf 2013

Gilad Ben-Yossef is a software architect at EZchip Semiconductor Inc. Lately he has been working on reducing the interference caused to user space processes in large multi-core systems by Linux kernel “maintenance” work and on SMP support for the Synopsys Arc processor. In the past Gilad has co-authored O’Reilly’s “Building Embedded Linux Systems” 2nd edition and presented at such venues as Embedded Linux Conference Europe and the Ottawa Linux Symposium. He is also cofounder of Hamakor, an NPO devoted to the promotion of FOSS in Israel, and a founding organizer of “August Penguin,” an Israeli community FOSS conference. Gilad holds a B.A. in Computer Science from Tel-Aviv Jaffa Academic College. When not trying to make FOSS software do something the authors never intended, Gilad likes running, science fiction and spending time with his wife and two adorable daughters.
