I don't think that I have introduced myself yet, although many of you already know me. (I am not sure if that is good or bad!) My wife, Lorena, is the Assistant Director for Academic Computing in the Computing Center here, and is currently the Acting Director also. I have two children, Shannon, age 9, and Lathan, age 5. I have a Ph.D. in Computer Science, in measuring compiler optimizations. I have been teaching at Andrews University since 1980. I direct the graduate programs in computing, and provide technical support for the unix system in the School of Business. Oh, and I teach a few upper division and graduate classes also. I enjoy using the tools from compiler construction and formal language theory to solve real world problems. This fall quarter I seem to be up to my arm pits in alligators, so don't expect much from me until the quarter is over. My personal web page is "http://www.andrews.edu/~bidwell/" but all my stuff is in my work page, "http://www.andrews.edu/~bidwell/work.html". I have been collecting all of the Bio's (I hope that I haven't missed any) and put them in a web page at "http://www.andrews.edu/~bidwell/sda-cs/". If any of have joined later and missed some of the Bio's or discussion this page also has a digest of all of the postings which is generated at 6:00 a.m. EST from the mail archive of the list. (I am beginning to really like perl!)
