    Assistant Professor of Information Technology in the 

    Allen E. Paulson College of Engineering and Computing at

    Georgia Southern University

    Research

    Social Classification System – Facet Approach to Collaborative Categorization and Classification, 2008 – 2012
    ​

    This as a joint project between the Computer Science Department in the College of Science and the Information Technology Department in the College of Business. The project was funded by several grants including a National Science Foundation grant.

    In this project we created a faceted classification system for categorizing large collections of archived images. My contribution to the project was to design and conduct the experiments for testing the system. Over 3 years, I ran the experiment with more than forty classes of thirty or more students. The experiment consisted of my explaining how social computing works and then walking the students through a few examples in the system we had them testing. They then had a set of artifacts from the collection that they classified without assistance.

    This project produced several papers and conference presentations. I presented the user experiment aspect of this project at International Conference on Digital Libraries & Knowledge Organization in Gurgaon, India in 2011.

    Graduate Research Assistant – Business Applications using Modeling and Simulation, Virginia Modeling, Analysis, and Simulation Center Funded, 2012 – 2015
    ​

    This research focused on discrete-event simulation. Multiple platforms and languages were included in these experiments. The work concentrated on supply chain models, specifically modeling the bullwhip effect on inventory.

     

    I have made presentations of this work at the Virginia Modeling and Simulation Student Capstone Conference, the Dean's Research Seminar for the Strome College of Business, and VMASC Student Research Seminar.
