About Mukesh Prasad

I graduated with the 55th course of National Defence Academy of India. After my graduation with 55-NDA, I obtained an MS in Computer Science in 1981, and an M.Phil. in 1988, both from Yale University of USA.

Crisis of Integrity in Academia and Research

I hold the view that US and the West in general, currently are in the middle of a serious scientific crisis. A crisis of integrity in Academia and Research. Both Covid-19 and Manmade Climate Change are symptoms of this crisis of integrity in academia and research.

Some Of My Important Works

I have solved the Quantum Collapse question in physics.

I am the author of a Theory of Consciousness and was an early advocate of using Neural Networks for Artificial Intelligence.

I had the privilege of developing the original /dev/pty architecture for Unix and Unix-derived systems.

I had the fortune of having had a very interesting physics education with many people deserving thanks along the way for said education.

Miscellaneous

I have taken about 30 (thirty) courses in Computer Science, and about 20 (twenty) in physics.

I have created and posted a few videos on You Tube.

I have had the good fortune to enjoy sports like skiing, flying, sailing, and skydiving.

I am a Mensa member.

I hold the view that instead of spreading rumors about me, people should spread URLs so others can actually read what I have written. E.g. If you did not know that I have many physics courses in my background - and mistakenly assumed that Computer Scientists are all physics geniuses, it is not my fault. I have the background to know that Computer Science is not even a science, it is a technology. The confusions and harm that result from spreading rumors instead of URLs, are not on my head.

I have lived in many places in India and in the USA. Since 2008 I have been living in Colorado.
