Present Position
Principal System Administrator
ADNET Systems, Inc
ASD System Team
Brief Bio
David Friedlander joined the Laboratory for High Energy Astrophsyics (LHEA,now ASD)
in the fall of 1988 as the Data Manager for the
EGRET (Energetic Gamma Ray Experiment Telescope) instrument,
part of the
Compton Gamma Ray Observatory (CGRO). In addition to training and managing a team of
eight data analysts (who reviewed several million individual photon spark chamber triggers),
David was also the system administrator for the group. This occurred partially by default, as he was
initially the only one in the group who knew already UNIX. Thus, he taught the UNIX operating system
to roughly 35 people and managed approximately 25 workstations, covering five flavors of UNIX
(mostly Sun).
In the spring of 1995, David was offered a position (unsolicited) as part of the
LHEA-wide system administration team. He continued a part-time role with
EGRET/CGRO until its re-entry into the Earth's atmosphere in 2000.
