My primary research interests involve getting a cushy research assistantship.
This primary goal aside, I also like thinking about the following
(in no particular order and with no deference given to other taxonomies of
computer science):
- Programming Languages
- Parsers
- Grammar and Computational Linguistics
- Semantics and Formalisms
- Compilers and Optimization
- Program Modelling
- Virtual Machines
- Machine (Applied Computational) Models
- Digital Logic Synthesis
- Domain Specific Languages
- Artificial Intelligence
- Applications of "Classical" Artificial Intelligence
- Expert Systems
- Neural Networks
- Inference and Heuristic Searches on State Spaces
- Artificial Life
- Cellular Automata
- Classifier Systems (Ordinary and Fuzzy)
More specifically, I want to play with the
simulations that have traditionally been used to
test and evaluate classifier systems, such as
FIXME.
- The Genetic Algorithm
- Machine Learning
- Self Modifying Systems
Single agency
- Self Organizing Systems
Multiple agents
- Grammar Acquisition
- Knowledge Representation
- Ontology and Taxonomy
- Knowledge Base Construction
or perhaps just plain old Databases
- Document Classification and "Comprehension"
- The Semantic Web
- Software Engineering
- Object Modelling
- Modelling Tools
- Modelling Languages (UML)
- Object Modelling Methodology
- (Patterns and Pattern Languages)
- Reverse Engineering
This is in reference to whitebox analysis, mentioned
above as "Programming Languages: Program Modelling".
- Object Model Generation
- Application Binary Interface (ABI) Level
Integration
as opposed to middleware solutions
- Unit Test Generation
- Automated Testing
- Software Component Interfaces
- Application Binary Interfaces
- Middleware (COM, CORBA)
- HTTP/B2B (SOAP, XML-RPC, etc..)
- The Development Process
- Rapid Application Prototyping/Development
- Simulation and Visualization
- Computer Graphics
- Rigid Body Dynamics
- Informatics (Information Theory)
- Anticryptography
- Algorithmic Information Theory
- Compression, Entropy and Fractals
- Bioinformatics
