Tony has been active for more than thirty years in the computer business as a developer and entrepeneur. With an education (M. Sc) in mathematics and computer science Tony's first work was, as the first employee, at Prover Technology (www.prover.com) to develop a ground breaking formal verification and proof system for safety critical systems
in nuclear- train-, automotive- and aviation industries.
In 1993 he joined Ericsson CSLab, computer science laboratory, as a co-worker and a co-designer of the computer programming language Erlang, where he did major work in the SMP area to allow the Erlang runtime system to execute truly parallel. Around the millennium shift, a group from CSLab formed the company Bluetail AB to create Internet related products using Erlang as a platform. Bluetail was sold to Alteon web systems which in turn was bought by Nortel networks a few weeks later.
At Alteon/Nortel Tony developed SSL accelerators and SSL VPN products. Tony then co-founded Synapse Mobile Networks (www.synap.se), whose main business is device management systems that configure mobile handsets for Internet access. As of today the company servers has configured around 1 billion handsets around the world. In recent years Tony has focused on embedded development in the marine industry.
