Current Research
Explanation Exploration
I am a Ph.D. candidate at the Unviersity of Virginia and a member of the Modeling and Simulation Technology Research
Initiative
(MaSTRI) team. I am currently working on program analysis techniques
to understand and validate emergent behaviors in software. An overview of my
motivation and goals is available
here.
Previous Research
Tutorial Generation Toolkit
I have worked on the development of the
Tutorial Generation Toolkit (TGT). The TGT is a Java library that supports the construction of interactive tutorial applications. It allows incorporation of sprite-based animation, voice-overs, and interactive exercises as well as multiple choice self tests with result logging to a database. Most recently Dr. Lewis Barnett
presented a paper he and I co-authored at
CCSE 2006.
Pseudorandom Number Generation
I
DO NOT do pseudorandom number generation research; however, I have always been very interested in it. During my undergraduate years at
University of Richmond I wrote an
annotated bibliography on pseudorandom number generation. My fear is it may be a bit out of date.
