Abstract
In the last Research Committee Update (TLE, September 2020, 681–682), I explained that the title of this column comes from a book by Charles Murray, The Curmudgeon’s Guide to Getting Ahead. With the curmudgeon still in mind, I have a few more comments to make about our lives as researchers, pushing the leading edge of technology in our industries. In small companies, it helps to be a contrarian, to develop novel algorithms in areas overlooked by large research groups or the academic groups funded by them. One such technology that our group started working on a few years ago, nudged by the research group at Saudi Aramco, is diffraction imaging (DI). Aramco was looking for a company with a good quality commercial Kirchhoff migration, since this particular DI implementation involved modifying a Kirchhoff kernel.
