Attached is a sample of the students Bart is working with currently at Portland State. Undoubtedly, someone crucial has been missed.

Doctoral Students

• CS Ph.D. student Robert Bauer is Jim Hook's student, but has been a close collaborator, colleague, and friend of Bart's for many years. He is working on formal models of program memory and concurrent execution, and expects to graduate in the 2008 timeframe.
• CS Ph.D. student (jointly with Su Hui Chiang) Sangsuree Vasupongayya is currently working on search algorithms for declarative supercomputer scheduling. She expects her degree in the 2007 time-frame.
• Mathematics Ph.D. student (jointly with Gerardo Laferriere) Anca Williams is working on control theory and applications. She expects her degree sometime in 2006.

Masters Students

• CS M.S. Student David Allen is working on a principled simulator for amateur sounding rockets. He expects to defend his thesis sometime mid-2006 and graduate thereafter.
• CS M.S. student Gursharn Khatra is working on machine learning for classification of mass spectrometry data. He expects to defend his thesis fourth quarter 2005 and to graduate first quarter 2006.
• CS M.S. student Mark Heller defended his thesis on virtual world ontology development in 2005. He expects his degree first quarter 2006.

Undergraduate Students

• CS Undergraduate student Jamey Sharp has been a long-running collaborator of Bart's on a huge variety of projects. He expects to graduate first quarter 2006.
• CS Undergraduate Mick Thomure has worked with Bart on projects in machine learning and web infrastructure. He expects to graduate fourth quarter 2005.
