Subject: [higgins-dev] Nomination
of Abhi Shelat as Higgins committer
I nominate Abhi Shelat be
added to the Higgins project as a committer.
Abhi has contributed towards
the incorporation of Idemix cryptographic protocols in the architecture, the
design and implementation of a user interface for selecting credentials, and
the design of how relying party policy matching integrates with the I-Card
Selector Service (ISS). In the future we anticipate that Abhi will also be
contributing to the development of the browser-based ISS Web UI component.
More background on Abhi:
Abhi is a researcher in cryptography at the IBM Zurich Research lab. He
received his Ph.D. from MIT under the tutelage of Professor Silvio Micali,
received a masters from MIT under Professor Madhu Sudan, and received his
bachelors degree from Harvard. His research encompasses both theoretical and
practical aspects of protocol design, and cryptography---in particular,
encryption and non-interactive zero-knowledge protocols.
