Message To Prospective Graduate Students
My research program is very software intensive, focusing largely
in the area of parallel and distributing computing, networking and
modeling and computer simulation, as well as computer architecture as
it applies to these areas. If you wish to be apart of my research
program, please consider the following in addition to your having an
excellent scholastic achievements and standardize test scores (GRE):
If you possess these skills and you want an exciting research program in parallel
computing systems, please send me e-mail that includes:
I look forward to hearing from you!!.
