Steve Storch has been involved in the design, development, and deployment of advanced networking technologies at BBN Technologies since 1982. He is currently Vice President and Manager of the Internetwork Research Department, which conducts leading-edge research, development, and consulting focused on the needs of both government and commercial customers.
Prior to his current position, Steve managed large R&D efforts, including the DARPA Multi-Gigabit Router (MGR) and DARPA/NASA Gigabit Satellite Network (GSN) programs. The MGR program focused on the development of a prototype IP router capable of forwarding datagrams at speeds 1-2 orders of magnitude faster than were commercially-attainable at the time; the GSN program developed and supported experimentation with a set of transportable earth stations that interoperated at gigabit-per-second speeds in a satellite-switched TDMA network based upon NASA's experimental Ka-band ACTS satellite.
Steve's earlier responsibilities included the management of numerous research and development projects in areas including: support for distributed real-time multimedia applications in highly-mobile wireless networks; security architectures for large-scale internetwork host mobility; routing and addressing mechanisms for large internetworks; exploration and verification of new internetwork management capabilities; packet-oriented data encryption technology insertion into wide-area internets; and highly-dynamic packet-oriented TDMA satellite networks. He also directly designed and developed software, and provided system engineering, for BBN's various packet satellite networking projects.
Prior to working at BBN, as a staff member at MIT Lincoln Laboratory, Steve designed and developed earth terminal and system controller software for advanced prototypes of circuit-switched satellite communication systems.
