Background
I am a Computer Science professor. I currently serve as Interim Dean of the College of Science. I started teaching at Cal Poly Pomona in 1988. I served as Department Chair of Computer Science from 1997 to 2006 and as Associate Dean of the College of Science from 2006 to 2009.
I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science from Penn State in 1984 and worked as Assistant Professor at the University of Rochester from 1984 to 1988.
Office location
My faculty office is located in the
College of Science Building 8, in room
8-12.
Academic interests
My Ph.D. research was in algorithm design, and tackled the problem of efficiently updating the solution to a combinatorial problem by saving critical information in data structures. I'm interested in emerging computer technologies, both hardware and software.
My teaching interests include discrete structures, programming, data structures, algorithms, language and complexity theory, parallel computing and numerical methods. I find that teaching the student seminar courses helps me keep up with emerging technologies and recent developments in the field.
