We study the design and use of computing systems and communication networks. Current projects include scheduling parallel computations (including cycle-stealing in NOWs), designing efficient communication protocols, creating virtual parallel architectures via algorithms (including fault tolerance), determining the computational consequences of advances in technology, and developing supporting mathematical techniques.
