Munindar P. Singh professes computer science at North Carolina State
University, where he dabbles in agents and services, and especially
business protocols, trust, and social networks. 

Munindar has several degrees of freedom. On rare occasions he holds
his B.Tech in computer science and engineering from the Indian
Institute of Technology and his Ph.D. in computer sciences from the
University of Texas.

A man of few words, Munindar has authored about 200 articles and
columns; he recently coauthored the textbook Service-Oriented
Computing and edited the 1,100 page Practical Handbook of Internet
Computing.

As former editor-in-chief of IEEE Internet Computing, he disdains
self-indulgent bios, but as an editorial board member for the journals
of Autonomous Agents & Multiagent Systems and Web Semantics, he loves
self-referential representations.

Munindar is frequently spammed at s i n g h at n c s u's edu domain
and continually invents clever ways of disguising his email address,
all the while knowing that his department's faculty listing exposes
his address in clear form.
