Po, Lecturer in Computer Science, Computing Centre, studied Electrical Engineering through Ph.D. at the University of Leeds. The requirement for a great deal of computing work in his doctoral research led hi m to machine language programming of Pegasus, one of the earliest computers available in University Computing i n England. He then joined LEO Computer, now par t of ICL, in their research laboratories for work i n logic design and computer hardware. The detail knowledge of computer logic gave him an opportunity —8—
