BoxClusterML implemented by Prof. Antony Jameson

On November 20th, 2007, the very first BoxClusterML has been installed at Prof. Antony Jameson from Stanford University Thomas V. Jones Professor of Engineering. This document introduces the story behind the first BoxClusterML implemented outside Japan.

Introduction of Prof. Antony Jameson

Prof. Antony JamesonProf. Antony Jameson has been published more than 300 scientific papers (authored or co-authored) in a wide range of areas including aerodynamics and control theory. He is the principal developer of the well know series of “FLO” and “SYN” codes, which has been used throughout the aerospace industry.
After obtaining a Ph.D. from Cambridge University, he has received a number of awards and in 2006, he received “The Elmer A. Sperry Award for 2006“ in recognition of his seminal and continuing contributions to the modern design of aircraft. This award has been given to the people such as Sr. Donald W. Douglas (The founder of McDonnell-Douglas) and Dr. Ferdinand Porsche (The founder of Porsche)
