Hello, I am an adjunct professor in the Computer Science and Electrical Engineering Department at the University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC).
I am generally interested in the theoretical and practical aspects of concurrency and parallel computation. My research involves developing, modeling and measuring distributed and parallel algorithms in high performance computing environments.
I am a proponent of and practitioner of experimental computer science and enjoy working towards developing efficient and effective methodologies for the discipline. I am not a mathematician, but my PhD advisor was Yaacov Yesha, so I have an Erdos number of 3.
Bio:
Tyler Simon has a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Maryland, Baltimore County with an MS in Computer Science and BA in Computer Science and Philosophy from the University of Mississippi. Dr. Simon has worked professionally in the high performance computing (HPC) field for over 15 years. In 2005 he earned a Department of Energy graduate research fellowship at Oak Ridge National Laboratory in the Computer Science and Mathematics Division. He has worked as a computational scientist for the Department of Defense High Performance Computing Modernization Office based at the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center in Vicksburg, MS. From 2009 to 2012 he was a computational scientist and manager of HPC user services at the NASA Center for Climate Simulation at the Goddard Space Flight Center. Tyler is currently a Technical Director at the Department of Defense.
