A preponderance of my professional activities relate to Software/Internet patenting, which demands simultaneously considering short-term and long-term intellectual property issues, while maintaining well formed opinions of potential litigation trends. Typically, I represent established and aspiring multi-national corporations in the broad business fields of e-commerce, telecommunications, and banking; and in more classical quantitative fields of imaging, knowledge engineering and encryption. In this context, I am constantly attempting to maintain a clear view of Internet-related legal trends in numerous jurisdictions, legal remedies that might legitimately be applied on behalf of patented internet technologies, and alternate technical solution which may be beyond the scope of presently accepted aspects of Internet. In light of my unique vantage relating to technological and legal milieu surrounding Internet, I am often solicited by fellow professionals to formulate strategic operational policies to comply with specific trademark and domain name expectations. By virtue of my qualifications and experience, I can contribute to forming a future for the Internet, which simultaneously will respect necessary aspects of legal structure without imposing conceptual barriers to the Internet's technical diversification.

As a former director of the mapping section of the Israel Census Bureau, which is part of the Prime Minister's Office's Central Bureau of Statistics, I have a deep appreciation of the complex dynamics of regulatory infrastructures. My many years of experience with mapping infrastructures includes many facets of economic and technical tradeoffs that typically occur in regulated utilities; e.g. gas, water, telephone, transportation, etc. According to my experience, these regulatory infrastructures embody the nearest conceptual antecedents to the technical and regulatory tradeoffs that must evolve for the Internet.

While the Internet provides the common man with a global conduit through which to express his ideas and technological aspirations in a way that produces a grand ensemble of sub-cultural milieu that has not been heretofore feasible, e-commerce which shares the same international communications infrastructure requires clear legal limits so as not to become confused with e-crime. Simply stated, I would like to contribute my ongoing evaluation of the tradeoffs that exist when considering introducing or modifying Internet regulatory policies, especially when these policies may invariably cause potential draconian technological manifestations.

My technical and legal qualifications are adequate to bring such a contribution forth, my motivation is simply to provide my substantially unbiased analysis to the necessary deliberations that must be forthcoming at this critical juncture in the converging integration of mankind's communications media.
