Steve Deering

Stephen Deering is a former Fellow at Cisco Systems, where he worked on the development and standardization of architectural enhancements to the Internet Protocol. Prior to joining Cisco in 1996, he spent six years at Xerox's Palo Alto Research Center, engaged in research on advanced Internet technologies, including multicast routing, mobile internetworking, scalable addressing, and support for multimedia applications over the Internet. He is a former member of the Internet Architecture Board, a past chair of numerous Working Groups of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), the inventor of IP Multicast, and the lead designer of the new version of the Internet Protocol, IPv6. He is currently retired and living in Vancouver, British Columbia.[1][2]

Education

Deering received his B.Sc. (1973) and M.Sc. (1982) from the University of British Columbia, and his Ph.D. (1991) from Stanford University.[3] He attended high school at Shawnigan Lake School on Vancouver Island.

Recognition

Deering is the recipient of the 2010 IEEE Internet Award for his work in IP multicasting and IPv6.[4] He was declared the 1994 "Geek of the Year" by Internet Talk Radio.[3]

gollark: Intel's 7nm is said to be (meant to be) similar to other companies' 5nm, at least.
gollark: They have 10nm Ice Lake mobile CPUs, at least.
gollark: They still haven't. So the best thing *shipping* is Ice Lake, which had better IPC but is also on their not-very-good 10nm process and has bad clocks, making it roughly as good as 14nm ones with worse architectures.
gollark: They added more cores, but Intel don't really have much better architectures. Unless they released Tiger Lake. I should check.
gollark: Sandy Bridge was 2011, and Intel is widely regarded as having not really done much since then until pretty recently.
