Eric Peterson, the editor of Ericsson Review.
Luis Barriga is a researcher at the Communications Security Lab, Ericsson Research. From 1986 to 1997 he worked in academia as systems administrator and research engineer in operating systems and parallel computing. He joined Ericsson in 1997 to work in security for e-commerce, messaging, WAP, and the Internet. He holds an M.S. in applied mathematics and a Ph.D. in computer systems from the Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm.
Rolf Blom is an expert in mobile communications security and manager of the Communications Security Lab at Ericsson Research. He first joined Ericsson in 1984, working mainly with the development of crypto and crypto-based products for defense communications until 1995. After a period of work abroad he returned to Ericsson in 1998 and became active in establishing the research and development of security within Ericsson. He holds an M.S. in electrical engineering from the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, and a Ph.D. in information theory from Linköping University.
Christian Gehrmann, who joined Ericsson Research in 1997, works with issues relating to protocols and ad hoc security. He has also participated in WAP standardization as relates to security. He was one of the founders of what is now the security unit at Ericsson Research. He holds an M.S. in electrical engineering and a Ph.D. in Information Theory, both from the Lund Institute of Technology.
Jamshid Khun-Jush is a Senior Specialist in the field of wireless LANs at the research department of Ericsson Eurolab in Nuremberg, Germany. Since joining Ericsson, in 1996, he has been engaged in the research and development of broadband radio-access systems. He chaired the physical-layer specification work of the HIPERLAN type 2 standard within the ETSI BRAN project and acts as the coordinator of all working groups related to this standard. In addition, he has chaired the BRAN project since May 1999. He had a key role in the cooperation between three projects—BRAN, IEEE 802.11, and the Japanese MMAC—resulting in closely aligned specifications for a 5 GHz radio for wireless broadband LAN and short-range applications. He received a B.S. from the Sharif Technical University in Tehran, Iran, in 1978, and Dipl.-Ing. and Dr.-Ing. degrees from the Technical University of Darmstadt, Germany, in 1989 and 1995, respectively, all in electrical engineering.
Olle Källström is currently manager of mobile e-commerce business strategies at Ericsson Radio Systems’ Internet Applications business unit. He has worked within the wireless and Internet industry since 1985, gaining extensive experience from within the fields of operational management, engineering, product management, standardization, systems design, and development. For two years, while serving as a senior telecommunications consultant, he helped launch data clearing and financial net settlement services. Since joining Ericsson, in 1995, he has held strategic product manager positions for GPRS, mobile Internet applications, and mobile e-commerce.
Gwenn Larsson, who joined Ericsson in 1999 as part of the Qualcomm acquisition, is currently the Director of Technical and Strategic Marketing in the new CDMA Systems business unit. Prior to joining Ericsson, Gwenn worked for three-and-a-half years in various technical and product marketing roles at Qualcomm. She began her career in wireless systems in 1989, working for Motorola as a systems engineer. She holds a B.S. in electrical engineering from Michigan Technological University.
Christofer Lindheimer received an M.S. in engineering physics from the Lund Institute of Technology, Lund, Sweden. He joined Ericsson in 1996, and has worked at the business unit for TDMA systems since 1998, participating in the development of EDGE as a third-generation solution for radio access.
Göran Malmgren is currently manager of the air interface architecture group at Ericsson Research. Since joining Ericsson in 1997, he has primarily been engaged in the development of wireless LANs. In particular, he has had overall responsibility for HIPERLAN/2 standardization.
