Lin Yi-bing (Chinese: 林一平; pinyin: Lín Yīpíng; born October 26, 1961), also known by his English name Jason Lin, is a Taiwanese computer scientist who was a minister at the National Science and Technology Council from 2014 to 2015. He has been the Winbond Chair Professor of Computer Science and Information Engineering at National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University since 1995 and a chair professor of computer science at Providence University since 2002.

Education

Lin graduated from National Cheng Kung University with a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) in electrical engineering in 1983. He then completed doctoral studies in the United States, where he earned his Ph.D. from the University of Washington in 1990 under computer scientist Ed Lazowska. His doctoral dissertation was titled, "Understanding the limits of optimistic and conservative parallel simulation".

Career

His research interests include personal communications, mobile computing, intelligent network signaling, computer telephony integration, and parallel simulation. He has developed an Internet of Things (IoT) platform called IoTtalk. This platform has been used for sustainable applications including AgriTalk for intelligent agriculture, EduTalk for intelligent education, CampusTalk for intelligent university campus, and so on.

From 1983 to 1985, he served as a second lieutenant instructor at the Communication and Electronics School of the ROC Army in Taiwan. From 1990 to 1995, he worked as a research scientist in the Applied Research Area at Bell Communications Research in Morristown, New Jersey. Between 1995 and 1996, he was a TRB review committee member for the Telecommunication Laboratories (TL) of Chunghwa Telecom Co., Ltd. Since 1995, he has been a professor in the Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering at National Chiao Tung University. In 1996, he served as deputy director of the Microelectronics and Information Systems Research Center (MIRC) at NCTU, and from 1996 to 1997, he was a consultant for the Computer & Communication Research Laboratories at the Industrial Technology Research Institute (CCL/ITRI). From 1997 to 1999, he was chairman of the Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering at National Chiao Tung University. Since 1999, he has also been an adjunct research fellow at Academia Sinica. Beginning in 2002, he has served as chair professor in the Department of Computer Science and Information Management at Providence University in Shalu, Taiwan. From 2004 to 2006, he was dean of the Office of Research and Development at National Chiao Tung University, and from 2006 to 2011, he served as dean of the College of Computer Science at NCTU. He has been a member of the International Advisory Board of the Alpine Research and Development Lab for Networks and Telematics at the University of Trento in Italy. Since 2009, he has been a member of the Board of Directors of Chunghwa Telecommunications, and since 2011, he has served as vice president of National Chiao Tung University.
