David Hemmendinger, professor of computer science, and Cherrice Traver, professor of electrical engineering, are co-authors (with Bob Reese and Mitch Thornton of the University of Mississippi) of a paper, “Early evaluation for performance enhancement in phased logic,” in the April issue of IEEE Transactions on Computer-Aided Design. The paper stems from Traver's research on the design of asynchronous digital logic circuits (circuits that do not depend on a clock signal to regulate their operation). Also, Hemmendinger recently taught a brief course on the Java programming language at ESIGELEC, an engineering college in Rouen, France, where he has taught the course twice before. ESIGELEC, with which the College has had exchanges for some years, has a program that brings in foreign teachers to offer courses in English as part of their students' international experience.
