Leendert Van Doorn, formerly a Senior Manager in IBM’s Research Dision, writes about the reasons he left IBM.
I had the good fortune to work with Leendert and I have a profound personal respect for him, so this is certainly thought provoking.

It’s amazing how time flies. I haven’t updated this thing in ages.
I’ve been working with Yaron Weinsberg on a paper for HotOS XI, which is just about done. I’ve also been working on the IOMMU perf paper for USENIX, which we’ve decided to target at OLS instead.
On the non-paper front, I’ve been taking a much needed break from Calgary, except for dealing with emergencies. I also spent a few days doing userspace stuff related to Xen live migration, which was a nice break from the rigors of kernel programming.
Next year I’ll be continuing the Calgary work for the LTC, while also working closely on a new and exciting project with the venerable Orran Krieger.
