Women in Computer Science and Engineering

Aijun An Ph.D.(Regina). Assistant Professor of Computer Science	Aijan's research interests include data mining, machine learning and software engineering. In particular, she has worked on rule induction, case-based reasoning, applications of rule induction, and object-oriented analysis and design. Her current projects include learning from imbalanced data sets, web documents classification, and recommender systems.
	Eshrat received her Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Toronto in 1976. She is interested in object-oriented programming languages (OOPL). Her recent work studies memory allocation and garbage collection (GC) in OOPL. The main goal of this research is to study, develop and experimentally evaluate memory allocation and garbage collection techniques that significantly advance the state of knowledge in GC. Eshrat's work is supported by IBM Canada's Centre for Advanced Studies and NSERC.	Eshrat Arjomandi Ph.D. (Toronto). Professor of Computer Science.
Mariana Kant-Antonescu Associate Professor of Computer Science	Mariana received her Ph.D. from “Université de Montréal” in 1990 and her Bioinformatics Certificate from University of Toronto and University of British Colombia in 2000. Her research interest is Bioinformatics: the use on WWW of heterogeneous databases (interfaces, software agent, etc.), and the design and the implementation of algorithms (sequential, parallel and distributed) for Computational Biology. She uses for this purpose the artificial intelligence and the object oriented technology applied in a distributed environment.
	Melanie's research interests include multimodal communication, augmentative and alternative communication, adaptive interfaces, computational stylistics, computer-supported collaborative writing and women in computer science.	Melanie Baljko Assistant Professor of Computer Science
Uyen Trang Nguyen Assistant Professor of Computer Science	Uyen's general research interests are in computer networks and data communications. She is currently interested in multipoint communications in IP and broadband networks with emphasis on flow/congestion control and quality of service guarantees; video multicast; and multicast routing in IP and mobile networks. Her research interests also include parallel programming, program mapping, and parallel system architectures.
	Natalija received her Ph.D. from the University of Ottawa in 2003. Her research interests include mobile/wireless communications with emphasis on data broadcasting and sensor networks, pattern recognition, optimization, and recently game theory.	Natalija Vlajic Assistant Professor of Computer Science.
