This site focuses mainly on Werner G. Krebs' academic research career prior to his joining private industry. It links to several nifty scientific websites Dr. Krebs was involved in. It includes full-text electronic versions of Werner's peer-reviewed scientific research publications. And, it's also something of a personal site.
Werner has worked for a successful proprietary, high-frequency trading firm as well as Fortune 500 financial firms. He has extensive experience in financial engineering and analytical/modeling roles.
In the past, Dr. Krebs has worked as an IT and statistical analysis consultant, as well as a Technical Specialist/Technical Evangelist (Marketing and Technical Sales Support) for a computer software vendor. In the latter capacity Werner chaired a working group under the auspices of an international standards organization, where he helped develop new XML technologies for the electronic transmission of scientific and mathematical content. He has also served on several locally prominent non-profit boards.
Before joining private industry, he was Postgraduate Researcher in the Department of Integrated Biosciences at the San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC), a national laboratory at the University of California, San Diego, where he held several roles, including that as technical lead for the Encyclopedia of Life project at SDSC.
Past work there included a new data-mining technology to statistically infer previously undiscovered relationships within existing database ontologies and clusters that UCSD applied for a patent on. One example involves a new statistically rigorous automatic gene annotation system, which is implemented on the PMR web site.
Past work has included the database the on-line Database of Macromolecular Motions including the famous Morph Server (highlights), a system for visualizing protein conformational change in four dimensions, and GNU Queue a load-balancing and process migration system for small cluster grid computation. The morph server is being supported by a group in New Haven, CT, while GNU Queue has a new volunteer maintainer as well as an active on-line support community.
Dr. Krebs continues to receive considerable interest regarding both of these past software projects. Commercial users seeking support on past projects should contact the present-day support communities and maintainers listed on the respective web pages linked above.
