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 has worked in a variety of applied computer science fields with his work on computational physics evolving into well known contributions to parallel computing initially involving the hypercube architecture. Over the last three years, his major activity has been the use of Object Web technologies to build collaboration systems and their application in an integrated approach to synchronous and asynchronous distance education. He has led activities to develop prototype high performance Java and Fortran compilers and their runtime support. His research group has pioneered use of CORBA and Java for both collaboration and distributed computing. He helped set up the Java Grande forum to encourage use of Java in large scale computations. 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.
