The Department of Computer Science has received
notification that assistant professors Johannes Gehrke and Andrew Myers are
among this year's recipients of the National Science Foundation's CAREER Awards.
The Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER)
Program is a Foundation-wide activity that offers the National Science
Foundation's most prestigious awards for new faculty members. The CAREER program
recognizes and supports the early career-development activities of those
teacher-scholars who are most likely to become the academic leaders of the 21st
century.
Gehrke's research is in the development of new
data mining and database technology. His grant is entitled "Towards Sensor
Database Systems." Myers' research is focused on security, programming
language design and implementation, and persistent and distributed object
systems. The grant is for his project, "Practical Language-Based End-to-End
