Software Engineering
Research Funded
September 2009 --
Drs. Ali Ebnenasir and Steve Seidel were recently awarded $106,000 from the
National Science Foundation in support of their research. Their project is
entitled
"Towards the Model Checking of the Partitioned Global Address Space (PGAS)
Applications". The goal of this project is to use model
checking techniques to increase the
dependability of High Performance Computing (HPC)
applications based on the
Partitioned Global Address Space (PGAS) model of shared
memory parallel
computing. The project is expected to take approximately 18 months.

Dr. Wallace Wins Fulbright Scholarship to Chile
December 2009 --
Dr. Charles Wallace has been named a Fulbright Scholar. Beginning January 2010
Dr. Wallace will spend six months teaching and conducting research in the Computer Science Department at the Pontificia Universidad Catolica in Santiago, Chile.
The highly competitive Fulbright Program is the flagship international
exchange program sponsored by the US government. It is designed to increase
mutual understanding between the people of the US and other countries.
While at Pontificia Universidad Catolica, Dr. Wallace plans to help the university
develop a software engineering specialty curriculum there. He is also looking
forward to investigating the complexities that non-native speakers of English
encounter when trying to communicate with the English-dominated software
industry. Dr. Wallace's research interest is in software engineering,
particularly the challenges of communicating about software.
