My research
interests are in algorithm design and analysis. Specifically, I enjoy work in online and approximation
algorithms (e.g.,
scheduling, matching, transportation, dial-a-ride, and other combinatorial
optimization) as well as in algorithmic
game theory (e.g., social choice, inefficiency of equilibria, auction
mechanisms, evolutionary game theory).
For more details,
see my publications.
If you are a student
looking for research projects, you can refer to my (outdated) page of CS student research projects.
I am a recipient of the John S. King Excellence in Teaching Award given by the Connecticut College Student Government Association to the faculty member who has “shown an extraordinary commitment to students both inside and outside the classroom.” According to SGA bylaws, the award is not to be given annually, and “should not be presented so often that it will lose its significance.”
This semester I am
teaching:
COM304 (Algorithms)
COM313 (Topics in Algorithmic Game Theory)
