• Greg Williams '03

  February 11, 2011 Mark LeBlanc
  Greg Williams '03 is completing his PhD in computer science at RPI. His research focuses on scaling the huge sets of data available on the web down to more manageable subsets. One of the challenges in this work is to cull only the information that is less relevant for one's problem domain. He is the co-author of several papers on this subject. At Wheaton, he was well known for his computing wiz and his spiked hair (think Elmer's glue). More »
