Biography

Dr. Fred Annexstein is an Associate Professor of Computer Science in the College of Engineering at the University of Cincinnati, and he has been on the faculty at UC since 1990. He received a Ph.D. in Computer Science from University of Massachusetts-Amherst in 1991, and a Master’s degree in Mathematics from the State University of New York-Binghamton in 1985. He received a B.S. in Mathematics from SUNY-Binghamton in 1983. His current investigations focus on 1) developing algorithms to exploit connection redundancy in peer-to-peer and sensor networks for enhanced networking efficiency and  reliability, 2) applying structural decomposition and encoding schemes to manage and exploit information carried in large web data repositories and taxonomies,  3) developing hashing and load balancing assignment methods for collaborative or volunteer computational systems. He has published over 15 journal articles in the areas of algorithms and computer networking, and has received several recent grants for research support and instrumentation from NSF. His full vita is available on request from fred.annexstein (at) uc.edu
