Dr. Willoway Jacobs

Dr. Willoway Jacobs, also known as Dr. Jacobs or Willy, was a computer scientist associated with Texas A&M University-Kingsville and was a former member of the F.D.I. Organization. He was born in Norwich, England, the United Kingdom.

Personality
Dr. Jacobs is extremely dedicated to this work and does not tolerate interruptions or disturbances making known his frustrations. He is an old acquaintance of Major General Joseph E. Kawallis from their days in the F.D.I. Organization, however, it is obvious that the General is happier to see Jacobs than Jacobs is to see the General.

After the F.D.I.
Dr. Willoway Jacobs, however, was denied research grants under the program as a foreign national. He continued his research in public universities.

While with the F.D.I. Jacobs had served as a computer specialist. Since his research was far ahead of its time for the late-1980s, Jacobs turned his attention to developing Artificial Intelligence. His original system, Odysseus, developed from a cutting edge 1980s/90s database into a full on self-aware AI.

Dr. Jacobs, however, saw his computer work as a "work related" necessity and his AI research as more of a passionate hobby. His true interests were in using worm holes to develop a "portal" technology.

This physics based research was his intended project with the F.D.I.  This did not play out in that the F.D.I. Organization was ended and, as a British Subject, the case was made not to fund his research. That said, he continued slowly with all his research projects in various universities eventually ending up at Texas A&M University-Kingsville where he teachers Computer Science and continues his research.
