Summary of Interests See: http://www.npac.syr.edu/DC Java based Computation: http://www.npac.syr.edu/projects/javaforcse For education:http://www.webwisdom.org Fox is an expert in the use of parallel architectures and the development of concurrent algorithms. He leads a major project to develop prototype high performance Java and Fortran compilers and their runtime support. NPAC has pioneered use of CORBA and Java for both collaboration and distributed computing. Fox is a proponent for the development of computational science and its follow on "Internetics" as an academic discipline and a scientific method. He has established at Syracuse University both graduate and undergraduate programs in these areas. All course have been made available on the Web and his research includes HPCC technology to support education at both K-12 and University level. His research on parallel computing has focused on development and use of this technology to solve large scale computational problems -- such as numerical relativity and earthquake prediction. Fox directs InfoMall, which is focused on accelerating the introduction of high speed communications and parallel computing into New York State industry and developing the corresponding software and systems industry. A recent set of activities center on Web collaboration technology and its application to synchronous distance education
