networks. Central has been the theme of data: data security, data integrity, data reliability and large-scale
data processing. Applications of this research have been in secure storage systems, software reliability and
integrity analysis of data subsystems, the reliability of pervasive sensor networks, and the extraction of social
networks from text. Software artifacts from this research include PASIS, FlakyIO, Critter Sensor Network, and
AutoMap. The PASIS secure storage system used an information-theoretic approach to provide a cutomizable
tradeoff between security, availability, and performance. The FlakyIO framework is a software exception injection
engine for the evaluation of I/O failures on software. The Critter device is a pervasive sensor network with
routines to overcome data failures. AutoMap is a text mining software used to extract a social network as it
appears in the text. His teaching has included traditonal computer science classes as well as the course "Social
Implications of Technology", which studies the impact of technology in the areas of reliability, integrity and
security. Previous to his current position, Bigrigg was the co-director of the Embedded and Reliabile Information
Systems Laboratory in the Institute for Complex Engineered Systems (ICES) at Carnegie Mellon University.
Bigrigg is a Project Scientist with the Center for Computational Analysis of Social and Organizational Systems
(CASOS) in the Institute for Software Research at Carnegie Mellon University.
