==Career==

===Career===

In 1975, Poblete was one of the founders of the University of Chile's Department of Computer Science, the first of its kind in Chile.<ref>[http://ccnso.icann.org/about/bio/patricio-poblete.htm ccNSO Profile]</ref> He has been a professor at that department since then and has produced a number of publications, most of them on the fields of the analysis of algorithms, data structures, Internet policy, and engineering education. From 2000 to 2014, he was Director of the School of Engineering and Science of the University of Chile.<ref>[http://www.wwtld.org/aboutcctld/history/wwtld1999/elections/patricio-en.html wwtld.org]</ref>

Mr. Poblete's involvement with the Internet began in 1984 when he and his colleagues at the Department of Computer Science established a [[UUCP]] network linking several universities in Chile. This network was linked a couple of years later to the global Internet, and as a consequence in 1987, the department assumed responsibility for operating the domain name registry for [[.cl]], which later became [[NIC Chile]]. [[NIC Chile]] is one of the largest registries in Latin America, and is known for having introduced a dispute resolution system based on arbitration in 1997 (two years before the [[UDRP]]). It was the first Spanish speaking registry to introduce its [[IDN]].
