Professional Service

Areas of Interest

Functional programming, concurrent processing, object-oriented programming, and undergraduate education

Summary of Research

I maintain a long-standing interest in functional programming, its potential for concurrent processing, and its suitability for formal reasoning. In Fall 1995 I am using a functional programming language in teaching a section of CS1, and I am working as time permits on a functional-language implementation of a real microcomputer application. A longer-term project is a book on functional algorithms.
