How does one solve an intricate problem when available computing resources are not enough? One looks to grid computing, which can collectively use the power of hundreds or thousands of computers to work together to seek the answer.
The Department of Computer Science (CS) invites applications for two tenure-track Assistant Professor positions beginning in September 2013. We seek candidates with specialization in embedded systems, energy-aware computing and security.The Binghamton campus is engaged in smart-energy and cyber security initiatives that involve several campus units. The faculty positions sought above are directly tied to these initiatives. Applicants must have a PhD in Computer Science or a closely related discipline by the appointment date. Strong evidence of research capabilities and commitment to teaching are essential.
Computer Science Assistant Professor, David Liu, won the NSF Career Award and joined the rank of our two existing Career awardees, Michael Lewis and Kartik Gopalan. David's research area is energy-aware programming. David is also the recipient of a recent Google faculty research award.
Commencement 2013 profile: Michael ForzanoImagine being born blind, and then imagine beginning to lose your hearing at the age of 5. Now imagine that you're graduating from Binghamton University and will begin working for Amazon in August.
That's a lot to think about and would likely overwhelm most people. But it hasn't verwhelmed Michael Forzano.
A computer science major from Yonkers, Forzano suffers from Norrie Disease — a rare genetic disorder that robbed him of his sight from birth and has severely limited his hearing.

The Computer Science Department Welcomes its newest Professor Timothy Normand MillerTim received his PhD from The Ohio State University in 2012, specializing in Computer Architecture. His current research interests are in optimization of multiprocessor designs for lower power, improved energy efficiency, and greater reliability. He has authored twelve publications in top journals and conferences, including HPCA and MICRO. Tim has 16 years of industry experience in chip design, embedded systems, software engineering, GPU architecture, and computer graphics.
Tim is also the founder of the Open Graphics Project, whose mission is to develop a fully open-architecture GPU and powerful GPU simulator. We invite you to visit his webpage for additional information.
Do you enjoy solving puzzles, investigating technology and approaching problems from unusual directions? Then computer science just might be for you.
Computer science at the Watson School focuses on the design and application of computing systems, ranging from hardware and software components to networking, intelligent systems and multimedia. Whether you're at the undergraduate or graduate level, we'll help you tailor your CS program to your own interests and goals.
At Watson, you'll work with dedicated professors who conduct world-class research in areas ranging from parallel processing to grid computing to modern software design. You'll learn to work in diverse teams, solve complex problems and participate in high-level research of your own.
And when you graduate, you'll have the skills and experience you need to succeed -- in any field. CS majors at Watson go on to highly successful careers in computer science, business, industry, academic, the law and more.
The 2012 edition of the Princeton Review College Guide lists Binghamton University's Computer Science Department among the 40 great Computer Science/Engineering Departments in the nation.
