My primary research area is in boundary value problems for ordinary differential equations, and my secondary interest is in formal language theory as applied to computer science. I am the author of textbooks in linear programming and finite mathematics, the CALIPSO series of software, and numerous research articles. I received the Ph.D. from the University of California in 1966 and have taught at the University of Idaho since 1967. I served as chair of the department from 1982-1990. I assumed the chair again in July 1998 and will probably continue at that job until I retire in July 2001.

My course home page describes video courses I teach through Engineering Video Outreach and how you can obtain shareware versions of CALIPSO software.
