I am currently an associate professor of Computer Science at Bucknell University in Lewisburg, PA. I started this blog back when I was a student going for my PhD. It quickly turned out to be a place to post articles related to my field that I thought would be of interest to students and faculty, particularly those interested higher education in computer science. I also share some personal reflections of my life pursuits.

The next DARPA challenge -- a Humanoid
This is a video showing some of the more recent advances in the development of humanoids. Boston Dynamics has been doing some great work in this field. And, it represents the next DARPA Grand Challenge. See the Wired article here that documents a bit more about the challenge.
This video reminds me a bit of The Terminator. Yes, it's kinda cool, yet kinda creepy at the same time. But, entirely fascinating. Be sure to check out some of the other robots these guys are working on. Fantastic work!
