Arto's page at CSC

My name is Arto Teräs and I worked as an application specialist at CSC in various projects during years 2003-2012. Starting from April 2012 I have decided to follow a new path and will not be able to update these pages any more.

My personal site including my current contact information is at http://ajt.iki.fi.
