ERIC BACHMANN
Ph.D. 2000 from the Naval Postgraduate School
Networked virtual environments, human motion, and computer graphics.

W.J. BO BRINKMAN
Ph.D. 2004 from Princeton University
Dr. Brinkman's research focuses on the design and analysis of algorithms. His most recent projects are in computational geometry, particularly geometric algorithms for problems set in metric spaces. He is also interested in algorithms for massive data sets, algorithms in streaming or memory-limited models of computation, and graph-theoretic algorithms. His work includes both theory and experimentation, and includes collaboration with the math department.
