| Yevgeny Menaker | Yevgeny Menaker is a software engineer, developer and author. His interest in computers started when Pascal still ruled.
In 1998, he graduated with distinction with his B.Sc. degree in Computer Sciences and Statistics from Tel-Aviv University of Israel. During the studies Yevgeny worked at LaHIT Ltd. developing Computer Based Training and voice-recognition based application.
Then, he joined the Israeli Defense Forces and served as a software developer. He was promoted to Internet Applications team manager. Yevgeny's team developed various Web and Windows applications using COM/ATL/ASP/ASP.NET. During the army service he also worked in the bioinformatics group of Tel-Aviv University. He developed C++(Linux) and Web (Apache/JSP/Perl) applications for analyzing proteins 3-D structure. The knowledge of Perl Yevgeny acquired working in the bioinformatics field helped him in writing the Programming Perl in the .NET Environment book for Prentice Hall PTR together with Michael Saltzman and Robert J. Oberg.
As a consultant to Object Innovations, Yevgeny ported their Java courseware to Linux and tested the lab examples for these courses.
Besides computers, Yevgeny's interests include growing cactuses and riding mountain bikes. |
