Academic Achievements
- No specific mentions of publications, awards, or patents.
Research Experience
- Currently an Associate Professor in the School of Informatics, Computing, and Cyber Systems at Northern Arizona University. Involved in developing the Solar System Notification Alert Processing System (SNAPS) for the Rubin Observatory, which will use parallel multi-core CPU and GPU-accelerated near real-time outlier detection algorithms to detect interesting events on small bodies in the Solar System. Also interested in the regions of the Galaxy expected to have the highest carrying capacity for land-based complex life.
Education
- PhD in Computer Science from the University of Hawaii at Manoa in 2015; Postdoctoral associate at MIT Haystack Observatory from 2015-2017.
Background
- Research interests include parallel, high performance, and data-intensive computing, general purpose computing on graphics processing units, astronomy, and astrobiology. Focuses on designing multi-dimensional data access methods to exploit the GPU's high on-card memory bandwidth and massive parallelism, and has worked on hybrid CPU/GPU algorithms for several domains.
