Arto's old staff page at CSC

This used to be my staff page at CSC - IT Center for Science Ltd. I worked there as an application specialist in various projects during years 2003-2012. Here you will find copies of my public presentations and articles which I wrote as part of my work.

The links to external web sites have been fixed so far as the pages are still available, partly removed and partly replaced by links to their archived versions at the Internet Archive.

For up to date information including my current contact details please see the front page of this site.
