CVJaap-Henk Hoepman studied computer science at the Rijksuniversiteit Groningen, the Netherlands, and obtained his PhD at the University of Amsterdam based on work done at the Centre for Mathematics and Computer Science (CWI).For several years he worked for the security group of KPN Research, the research division of one of the main Dutch telcos. He then returned to academia as an assistant professor at the Faculty of Computer Science of the University of Twente. Currently he is senior scientist in the security group of TNO ICT, Groningen, as well as an associate professor at the Institute for Computing and Information Sciences of the Radboud University Nijmegen.

Groningen...... is the place where I live.Good food can be bought on the Vismarkt market (Tuesday and Saturday), and in Le Souk or Ariola (both in the Folkingestraat). Kruiden & Keramiek have a nice selection of olive oil - you can refill your bottle from large barrels. If you don't feel like cooking, there's a range of nice restaurants: Jantje (in the Noorderplantsoen), Land van Kokanje, tapas at Cervantes, fast Asian at Wagamama, Mechoui (Moroccan), Jasmine (Thai), ... For the best croissants in town, go to Super de Boer at the Paterswoldseweg (opposite the Niemeyer tobacco factory). Really! (Then again, Gea disagrees.... ;-) For live music, go to Vera. Somtimes, there are nice parties/gigs at "de Silo", behind central station, but Groningen is lacking good parties these days (BandaBanda is tacky, and Syntax Error - who organised great electronic music gigs - as well as Holodeck/ClubPlus - that used to organise bimonthly dance nights - have quit... sadly). Each year, just before the second weekend of January, Groningen hosts Eurosonic. This two day European music festival (and seminar) features new and upcoming European bands, playing in major venues as well as small pubs scattered through the centre of town. Beware: the 2010 edition tickets sold out within a few hours. Presale starts early November. Moreover, Noorderzon is organised in the Noorderplantsoen every year late in August This large yet cosy theatre festival in a park lasts for one and half week and covers acts ranging from street theatre to international dance (as in ballet ;-). And last but not least, cafe Merleyn in the Oosterpoort is where we go... |

Other stuffI enjoy comedy, like Blackadder, and Monty Python Flying Circus.I like iceskating, cycling, or playing tabletennis and billiards. A few years ago i took up karate, the Okinawan Goju Ryu style to be precise, at the lovely dojo Het Spoor of Chris de Jongh sensei. ProgrammingIn the course of the years I wrote some small tools, and I did some Atari Falcon programming (but that was a looooong time ago).Where-am-I(Currently disabled) |
