Michael has spent the past seven years working at Juniper Networks in several capacities. Originally hired to train JUNOS engineers on architectural, design, and application principles, Michael developed detailed materials covering everything from software architecture to broader applications deployed using JUNOS software. Michael has since transitioned to product management, where he has focused on the constant evolution of the operating system, spearheading major infrastructure efforts designed to scale the operating system to meet tomorrow’s needs. Having majored in mechanical engineering with a special- ized focus on advanced fluid mechanics and heat transfer, Michael began his professional career working on research in aerodynamics. He has since spent time with databases at Sybase and, more recently, in ASIC design tools at both Synopsis and Magma Design Automation. Cathy Gadecki: A Senior Product Marketing Manager at Juniper Networks, Cathy is responsible for marketing JUNOS software. Since joining Juniper Networks four years ago, she has held multiple product and solution market- ing positions addressing the needs of enterprise customers. Cathy has more than 20 years in marketing and product management positions with a focus on creating new markets for network equipment and services, for both startup and established firms. Cathy is the co-author of ATM For Dummies (Wiley), which has been reprinted seven times and published in multiple lan- guages. Among other publications, Cathy authored Roll Out, a column dis- cussing new product and service introduction, which appeared regularly in Tele.com. She earned her master’s degree in electrical engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology with a focus on data communications. Aviva Garrett: Aviva Garrett has documented Juniper Networks technologies since joining the company as its first writer in 1997. She wrote the first JUNOS manuals and then oversaw the documentation as the company grew from a startup to an established network equipment provider. She recently stepped down as the Juniper Networks Director of Technical Publications to pursue other writing and business assignments. She is the author of the JUNOS Cookbook (OReilly, 2006). Prior to Juniper Networks, Aviva worked at Cisco Systems for six years. She also worked for Excelan/Novell, Gavilan, and other technology companies and startups.
