Research Interests, Projects, Publications

Research

My students and I work in parallel computing; adaptive sampling designs and clinical trials; computational science; and algorithms, data structures and theoretical computer science. I've also done research in graph theory, discrete mathematics; operator theory, analysis.

Publications

These were needed so that I didn't Perish.  Here is an annotated list, my vita, and what others have written about my work.

Teaching, Students

• Some research projects for students. Here's a problem asking where you should dig wells.
• Information for prospective graduate students
• Some of my students, past and present.
• Classes: Algorithms, Parallel Computing, other.

Tutorials, Consulting

Tutorials on Parallel Computing

Taught at U.S. Patent Office, Ford Motor, NASA, Supercomputing conferences, etc. Here's an overview.

Tutorials on Response Adaptive Sampling

Emphasizing their application to phase I and phase I/II clinical trials. Here is a description of my research in this area.

Consulting

I do consulting in Parallel and High-Performance Computing, in Adaptive Sampling, and in general Algorithms. I've consulted for or been supported by IBM, GlaxoSmithKline, Dow Chemical, Ford Motor, DARPA, NSA, NSF, NASA, DoD, ...
I've also been an expert witness.
