QUERY: who is this man?

ENCRYPTION: The Clinton administration's encryption plans are having licensing troubles: The US Commerce Department's NIST is having licensing discussions with inventors over its Digital Signature Standard, and an MIT scientist claims that the Clipper chip infringes on his patents. <WSJ 5/31 p.B6>

Can someone please post the id of this "MIT Scientist?" Also, any comments (however brief) on the NIST discussions?
