Research Overview

I've been doing research in one form or another since my undergrad days. Over the course of my adventure I've looked at grid computing, pervasive computing, and now am looking at the engineering of free and open source software. This page is intended to provide an overview of what I've done for each. As with everything on my page, I'm still porting it over, so it may take a while for everything to get up here.
