Academic Stuff
I'm a graduate student in
Computer Science
at UC Berkeley
where I'm a member of Professor
Mike Stonebraker's
Database Research Group.
My project, funded by the State of California's
Department of Water Resources ,
is part of the
Sequoia 2000
Global Change Research Project. I have built a database retrieval
system called Chabot for around 11,000 images using
Postgres
and I am studying ways to retrieve them using color clues.
Click here to look for thumbnails of these images. Here
is a sample:

Work Stuff
I'm working as the
Infocal programmer.
Infocal is a database of information for and about the UC Berkeley campus.
We provide access to the class schedule, job listings, campus
events, and so on, using a variety of access methods including telnet,
gopher, www, email, and dedicated terminals around the campus. I also
administer the web servers for garnet and violet .
