The Computer Science collection on ScholarsArchive has been growing a lot this semester. Faculty members of the department gave us their C.V. and we have identified those publications we can legally include in the collection. Then we went to work finding and posting the articles. We hope more faculty members will send their list of publications to scholarsarchive@byu.edu! Browse the Computer Science collection today.

You may have noticed a few small changes to the ScholarsArchive website. Links to the ScholarsArchive blog and policies have been moved from the navigation panel on the left side of the homepage. This leaves the navigation panel clear of anything except the collection links. No need to worry about losing the other links, though! You’ll find the blog and policies links on the right side of the homepage, along with a link for submitting items.
Hopefully these changes will help you navigate the ScholarsArchive collections more easily. Please don’t hesitate to use the other links to check out what’s new on the blog, review the policies, or to submit something to share with the rest of us!

We are pleased to feature 31 pieces of his work, both abstracts of conference papers and published articles. Take a step back in time by visiting the collection today!

Read Marnie’s project.
