Abstract
Michael Frank has spent his career as an academic researcher working over three decades in a very peculiar niche of computer engineering. According to Frank, that peculiar niche's time has finally come. “I decided earlier this year that it was the right time to try to commercialize this stuff,” Frank says. In July 2024, he left his position as a senior engineering scientist at Sandia National Laboratories to join a startup, U.S.- and U.K.-based Vaire Computing.
Michael Frank作为一名学术研究人员,在计算机工程的一个非常特殊的领域工作了30多年。根据弗兰克的说法,这个特殊的利基时代终于到来了。弗兰克说:“今年早些时候,我决定是时候尝试将这些东西商业化了。”2024年7月,他离开桑迪亚国家实验室(Sandia National Laboratories)高级工程科学家的职位,加入了一家位于美国和英国的初创公司Vaire Computing。
