Welcome to the my neck of the woods. My name is Shahzad Bhatti and based in
the Seattle area. I have been computer programmer for over twenty years, and being doing it as the day job for
over sixteen years. Besides computing, I like to read books on Astronomy, unsolved mysterious,
mathematics, aliens/UFOs and ancient civilizations. In Astronomy, I like
String or Unified theory, Wormholes, Parallel Universes, and how Universe began.
I love to read ancient civilizations such as Egyptians, Summerians, Babylonians, Atlantis, etc. There
is a wealth of knowledge that has been lost specially prior to Noah's
flood. May be we will find a huge library in one of the pyramids one day.
I have collected some interesting sites on ancient civilizations at
my bookmarks page
or from my del.icio.us links section.
My academic interest includes distributed and parallel programming. I developed
a Java based framework called "JavaNOW" to write parallel applications similar
to Linda and PVM systems. You can find some links to parallel programming
at my bookmarks page,
or my del.icio.us page.
Occasionally, I gaze at heavens and stars with my Orion SkyQuest XT8 Dobsonian Reflector
.
I also own a small consulting and software development company and spend spare
time writing interesting applications. May be someday I would get to quit my
day job. You can visit
Software Section of my
business website. These products are also available at http://plexobject.myshopify.com/.
Besides, work, family and my software/consulting business,
I am also involved with a couple of startups such as DC LinkTank and
a travel bidding site.
Open Source Contributions
Oh yeah, I am also primary contributor to following open source projects:
Unfortunately, pace of most above projects is slower than I would like to be, I hope to spend more time in future.
