Geoffrey Charles Fox
Faculty Title
Professor of Informatics
Fox has worked in a variety of applied computer science fields with his work on experimental and computational physics evolving into broad contributions to parallel computing initially involving the hypercube architecture. He has worked on the computing issues in several application areas – currently focusing on Earthquake Science, Polar Science, Chemical Informatics and DoD Net Centric Environments. Fox is working with the Minority Serving Institutions in systemic deployment of Cyberinfrastructure. Fox has developed parallel compilers and several Web/Grid computing infrastructures including the NSF Middleware Initiative OGCE project developing Grid portals. Fox is the Vice President for e-Science for the Open Grid Forum (OGF). His group developed NaradaBrokering as open source messaging system for Grids, Peer-to-peer networks and A/V conferencing/Collaboration. Recent interests include Clouds, Web 2.0 and multicore technology with data mining applications to GIS, Bioinformatics and Cheminformatics.
