This is my vita my vita.

Research Interest: My recent work is related to teaching and learning of computer graphics and foundational concepts in programming based on computer games. In general, I enjoy learning about the role technology plays in facilitating human communication of ideas and how to distribute communication workload to a loosely coupled network of computers. I am also interested in Computer Graphics, all aspects of image generation, especially in visibility determination, and algorithms concerning temporal anti-aliasing; Computer Hardware and Architecture; Information Visualization; and Virtual Reality.

Current Projects:

Games-Themed Introductory Programming Project: funded by Microsoft Research, we study approaches to attract and motivate students with games-based teaching materials.

Computer graphics (CSS450 and CSS451): funded by the National Science Foundation, we study approaches to teaching and learning fundamental concepts in building interactive computer graphics applications. The results of this work include more than 100 concept demonstration examples, and a textbook.

Teaching and Graphics Stuff:
CSS Courses: I am interested in teaching senior level algorithm and graphics classes.
Graphics/Games Links: Here are some links to popular graphics/games companies/discussion sites, etc.

Personal Stuff:
Past Experience. This is what I did before joining CSS.
Family Stuff. I have a great family with two great kids.
Personal Stuff. I kind of wandered around a little ...
