- We are formulating a plan for a research project that extends the type of computing systems
used for Internet search to a larger range of applications.
We originally referred to such systems as
Data-Intensive Super Computing (or ``DISC'') systems.
More recent, we have repurposed the acronym to be ``Data-Instensive Scalable Computer Systems.''
You can read a Conceptual Overview
Along this theme, we are gathering a group of like-minded researchers to form the
Big Data Computing Study Group.
- Dave O'Hallaron and I are
authors of the textbook titled Computer Systems: A Programmer's
Perspective. More information can be found on the CS:APP Web Page. You can buy it from
Amazon.com.

- Check out my publication list, complete
with links to electronic versions of many of the papers.
-
- I have a web page with copies of selected
presentations
-
- Check out my most cited paper: ``Graph-Based Algorithms for Boolean Function Manipulation,''
IEEE Transactions on Computers, Vol. C - 35, No. 8, August, 1986,
pp. 677 - 691. This version includes footnotes giving updates on some of
the ideas and conjectures presented in the paper. As of May, 2009, this
paper is listed by the CiteSeer database as their third most cited article.

Most Cited Computer Science Articles.
- As an illustration of what binary decision diagrams (BDDs) can be used for, take a look at Interesting Maps page I
have created based on some recent work by
Don Knuth

- If you visit my office, you'll see an interesting weaving hanging
on the wall created by Lois Bryant. Lois is my sister, but she's also a well-respected textile artist.
This weaving is inspired by the design and application of microprocessors. The lefthand side shows the equations by which one reasons about a processor design. The center section mimics an
Intel Pentium chip, and the righthand side displays the bits that the processor generates.
