Duncan Buell
Professor Buell has received the Ph.D. in mathematics from the University of Illinois at Chicago in 1976, with a dissertation in computational number theory. He was an assistant and associate professor at Louisiana State University from 1979 to 1986, during which time he did research and published papers in information/document retrieval and number theory and was part of a project whose output was the DRAFT attached processor for doing variable length integer arithmetic for operands up to 256 bits in length. In 1986 he joined the Supercomputing Research Center of the Institute for Defense Analyses. From 1992 to 1994 he served as project manager for the Splash 2 project, one of the original large scale reconfigurable computing machines. The primary goal of the Splash 2 project was to demonstrate the feasibility of *programming* applications into reconfigurable hardware to obtain significant speedups over conventional computing. In 2000 Buell joined the University of South Carolina as Professor and Chair in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering. He continues research in high performance and parallel computing, reconfigurable computing machines, and computational number theory.
