| Whatever happens keep pushing the science! - A. Newell |
I'm an associate professor in the College of Computing at Georgia Tech. My research interests are advanced programming languages (such as Scheme and ML), systems, and personal user interfaces.
Before I came to Georgia Tech, I was a research scientist at MIT's Artificial Intelligence Laboratory. At MIT, my students chose me after reading a little thumbnail bio published by the undergraduate office. But you can see the original, pre-censored version that I mailed in.
At Georgia Tech, I teach CS4240, the undergraduate compiler course, and CS3240, a class on models of computation.
I ran the Express project at the AI Lab.
A lot of people have been kinda worried about me ever since I published the scsh manual back in 1993, but I'm feeling a lot better, really.
There is no Scheme underground; it's all just rumour and hearsay.
Please get lost.
I do have hobbies.
Don't let your fascination with technology cause you to neglect the spiritual issues.
My Scheme network code is available. The package runs in scsh, and includes a complete, extensible HTTP server.
Planning to write a doctoral dissertation? Save me from repeating my standard advice on the subject, and read it instead.
I organised the ICFP'98 Functional Programming Contest, with Marc Feeley.
Stop asking me where I buy my coffee.
