Dr. Gopinath
Prior to founding Lotus Interworks, Inc., Dr. Gopinath was the State of New Jersey Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey. Prior to that, he was the Division Manager of Systems Principles Research at Bellcore and spent the previous 20 years as a member of the staff of the Mathematics Research Center of AT&T Bell Laboratories, where his research included applications of mathematics to communication, control and computer science.
Dr. Gopinath holds several fundamental patents in communication and computer technologies, including early patents on digital receivers for touch tone detection in phone networks, switching systems, composition of software objects, self-timed electrical interfaces, and wireless roaming.
Additionally, Dr. Gopinath’s work in applied sciences has been used in such varied applications as flight controls for helicopters, fighter jets and satellites, automation of processes in large steel plants, control of electric motors, speech compression, detecting structural weaknesses in physical structures, exploration of media through acoustic measurements, oil and gas exploration, text-to-speech applications, systems verification's tools, optical network management, and roaming in mobile networks.
Dr. Gopinath was elected Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers for his contributions to modeling and analysis of communication systems. He was also the Alexander Humboldt Fellow at University of Gottingen, Germany and the Gordon McKay Professor at the University of California, Berkeley.
