Tim worked on the ethash Proof of Work (POW) algorithm in 2014 and 2015.
He was brought on the project by Gavin Wood. They had previously worked together at Frontier Developments, a UK videogames company founded by David Braben, of Elite and Raspberry Pi fame.
His first change was commit 142a92e - Visual Studio compile fixes and he made commits to ethash between 13th Jan 2014 and 29th Mar 2015 and to cpp-ethereum between 16th Feb 2014 and 13th Mar 2015.
"I am very grateful to Tim, who continues to consult on our efforts at an ASIC-resistant proof-of-work algorithm, also implementing it in C++.
