New Goodrich C. White chairs honor the legacy of a former Emory president
Published Date: 1997-01-13 V. S. Sunderam, whose research is in distributed computing systems and includes computer networking and concurrent processing, is currently leading the Collaborative Computing Frameworks (CCF) project that involves several Emory faculty, postdoctoral fellows and students. The goal of CCF is to create virtual work environments or "collaboratories" (a location-independent laboratory in which researchers can collaborate) using computer workstations, campus networks and the Internet. "People at different universities, offices or even at home, can collaborate on a project in real time, as if they were simultaneously in the same laboratory," Sunderam said. "Our research involves inventing the enabling technologies and tools for such systems, and we are fortunate to have an excellent multidisciplinary team working on this project. The Dobbs professorship will help this project and others tangibly by providing supplemental research support." click here for the full article

Math/Computer Science honors four students
Published Date: 1995-09-25 In recognition of their high achievement, four students received awards from the Math and Computer Science Department Sept. 15. The Trevor Evans award, which recognizes outstanding performance by undergraduate majors in the department, was given to College senior Cyrus Bradford and 1995 graduate Matthew Kimball, who is currently in the department's master's program. The award, presented for the first time this year, will be given annually and is intended to help defray educational expenses. It was established by the family and friends of Professor Evans, department chair from 1957-72 and 1976-82, to honor his contributions to mathematics and Emory. click here to read the full article
