My official RPI webpage.

My schedule, including office hours.

You can get my snail mail address and some other background information on me, including a brief description of my Research Interests.

I have a list of my recent publications; many of them can be downloaded. Many of the papers are in the area of interior point methods for linear and convex programming, with particular emphasis on using these methods in column generation and cutting plane algorithms. Such techniques can be used to solve, for example, integer programming problems, stochastic programming problems and multicommodity flow problems.

I have set up web pages for any course I've taught in the last few years. Most of this material is behind the RPI firewall.

My research is part of the larger field of Operations Research. I have a very outdated list of selected OR sites, including links to general resources, conference homepages, various areas of operations research, colleagues, professional organizations, and book and journal publishers.

Do you know my former students Brian Borchers, Zhao-Yang Cheng, Srini Ramaswamy, Bob Rush, Steve Braun, Kartik Krishnan, Luc Basescu, Xiaoyun Ji, Kris Farwell, Jinye Zhao (co-advised by Jong-Shi Pang), Chaoxiong Wang (co-advised by Jong-Shi Pang), Jing Hu (co-advised by Jong-Shi Pang), Daryn Ramsden, Bin Yu, Erik Hammel, Lijie Bai, Tim Lee, Amy Givler, Xin Shen, Emily Heath, Dan Lu, April Sagan, Hannah Horner (co-advised with Jennifer Pazour), Dan Kosmas (co-advised with Tom Sharkey), Jun Tan, and She'ifa Punla-Green? (Some of their theses are available.) My Ph.D. Advisor, Mike Todd?
