More Detail:

Peter joined Diehl Servilla in 2006 as a patent engineer after a career in engineering, education, sales and international business development. Peter started his career as a systems engineer and project manager in digital signal processing and telecommunications projects. After a stint as professor in signal processing and digital filter design, he worked as Assistant Science Attaché at the Royal Netherlands Embassy in Washington D.C. In this position and later as a Consul of Industrial Affairs in California, he was heavily involved in analyzing new technologies and in the business aspects of technology transfer. Peter subsequently worked in senior sales and marketing positions at technology driven companies. There, he leveraged technology differentiators into very large and highly profitable business engagements, with a focus on business process improvement. In 2003 he changed course in his career to conduct privately funded scientific research and to develop IP in the specialized field of multiple-valued logic (MVL) and multi-state switching devices. Peter and Diehl Servilla LLC worked together on the development of an IP portfolio in which over 12 patents have since been issued. Recognizing Peter's specialized skills, Peter was invited to join the firm as a patent engineer. He works with the firm’s attorneys in the prosecution of patents for clients in the areas of signal and image processing, business methods, electronics, semiconductors, computer gaming and the mechanical arts.

Peter obtained an EE bachelor’s degree at Twente University under Professor Dr. Blaauw, one of the architects of the seminal IBM System/360, on a thesis on a RISC machine. He obtained his Ingenieur’s degree (M.Sc.) in electronic engineering under Professor Dr. Jonker, a leading electronic material researcher at Philips Electronics’ Physics Labs, on a thesis on memory behavior of ferro-electric single crystals.

Peter is married and has two daughters. He enjoys sailboat racing, hiking and biking along the beautiful beaches of New Jersey and the Dutch North Sea islands, classical string quartets, good mystery novels and reading and writing about the development of concepts in mathematics, electro-magnetics and epistemology.
