Bow Shock Systems helps organizations solve hard systems problems.

We have 25 years of experience analyzing, debugging, and solving problems in systems of software, hardware, and people. A few examples:

• silent data corruption in hardware, software, and firmware
• file systems design and architecture
• Linux kernel bugs
• race conditions and concurrency problems
• memory management issues
• network protocol design and implementation
• performance tuning for complex large-scale systems
• open source software governance
• communication in engineering organizations

And our favorite story: fixing the calibration code for a giant laser that shoots at satellites that detect nuclear explosions.
