I have been interested in applied mathematics and computing ever since I started college. This has led me to explore a variety of subjects and become involved in many different areas of mathematical (and also non-mathematical) programming. Some of these are computer algebra (tensor analysis, linear algebra, etc.), simulations and visualizations of physical and biological phenomena (hydrogen transport and combustion in nuclear reactor containments, dynamic modeling of solids subject to impulsive forces, antigens clustering on the surface of a cell, etc.), development of helpful utilities (for TeX, Fortran~90, etc.), development of networking and graphical user interface software (for a unique PC-based, distributed, physical security system), creation of World Wide Web pages (for various groups), and system administration of networked Sun workstations (also for various groups). Lately, I have been involved in a number of drug related biological applications (protein folding, cheminformatics and cell signaling).Specialties: computer algebra knowledge, networked Unix administration, book and journal special issue editing, conference series organizing, a variety of research interests, science fiction!
