Martin, I am working right here with Jim Irvine and discussed your rotation.
You will report to me, with 'client' reporting role to Jim where you will do most of the work. You will remain in Houston working on the 19th floor for now until we find you a place on either 44th or 45th. Jim Irvine will be asking John Griebling for Network Planning office space in Houston. You will get an office in that area. Jim will work from Portland but will hold an office in Houston. Until the office space on EBS floors happens, you need to remain on the 19th. We will allocate you to Jim's & John Griebling's group full time. You will have EBS computers, cell phone, etc. to be fully connected on the EBS side. You will work initially on the trffic engineering side to support day-to-day fire-fighting like analysis. I will supervise you with repect to guidance on what to do etc... Jim will direct what will get done. Both Jim and I will support Traffic Engineering work but Jim is ultimately responsible for deliverables. Our technical operational research specialists (Samer, Chonawee, and two others from Stanford & MIT) will focus on next generation algorithms for EBS. Such an algorithm is currently being specified. This will depend on how the trading market will develop. We know that existing off-shelf codes won't be sufficient. The development period for these algorithms will anywhere from 3 months to 9 months depending on the complexity. This is in-line with when EBS anticipates trade volumes to really pickup. I hope this helps. Regards, Ravi.

I just wanted to clarify some details of my rotation to EBS, esp given the retained ties to Research. Will Jim Irvine be my supervisor with EBS being the company billed for my time? That is, will my connection to Research be informal and understood, rather than having some actual reporting function? This is with respect to the A/A pool. Thanks, Martin
