Computer Science and Engineering

Dr. Krishna M. Kavi, Professor of Computer Science and Engineering, directs the National Science Foundation Industry/University Cooperative Research Center to create cutting-edge software that will make it possible for complete computer networks to link together ground troops, air combat personnel, snipers, decision makers, soldiers and superiors so that snap decisions may be made to hit enemy targets and to avoid civilian casualties. The Net-Centric Software and Systems Center also includes two other universities and about a dozen high-tech companies. The Chronicle of Higher Education features the NSF Center in this article.
