Jonathan Appavoo and Evimaria Terzi named as Junior Faculty Fellows of the Hariri Institute for Computing and Computational Science & Engineering (HIC).

The Junior Faculty Fellows program recognizes outstanding BU junior faculty pursuing computational research in a range of disciplines. According to Professor Azer Bestavros, Founding Director of the Hariri Institute, “This exceptional cohort of Hariri Junior Fellows epitomizes the qualities that the Institute is striving to cultivate and nurture at Boston University, especially as it relates to the integrative nature of their computing and computational research, which is unhindered by ossified disciplinary boundaries.” Commenting on the breadth and complementary nature of their research, he added “The research programs pursued by the junior fellows are quite diverse, yet in many ways they are related and complementary. For example, Professors Lubin, Terzi, and Kramer are all working with techniques to analyze large data sets, whereas Professors Coskun and Appavoo share an interest in power-efficient, large-scale distributed computing, in support of demanding HPC applications such as those pursued by Ritt.”
