Dr. Mark Matties obtained a Ph. D. in Polymer Science from the University of Akron in 1994 where he
investigated correlational and structural properties of molecules using classical molecular dynamics and
computational quantum mechanics. He continued this line of research in post-doctoral positions at the Max-
Planck-Institut fuer Polymerforschung (Polymer Research) in Mainz, Germany and the Dept. of Chemical
Engineering at the University of Cincinnati (OH). He received a M.S. In Computer Science from Bowie
State University in 2000. Before rejoining the BSU Department of Computer Science in Fall 2003 as an
Assistant Professor, he held UNIX, network and security engineering positions for contractors at NASA
Goddard Space Flight Center and the National Archives. He is actively involved in undergraduate teaching
in the area of Computer Networking and Operating Systems in the Computer Technology program. He is
also its Program Coordinator.
His relevant areas of research expertise include experience with large data sets, including extracting
meaningful information from them; application of statistical methods of data analysis including temporal
and spatial correlation functions; and work in clusters. His multidisciplinary background brings a different
perspective to the set of problems found in data fusion. While he is new to the faculty at BSU, he is actively
developing a research program at BSU and is beginning to collaborate on projects with Prof. Mareboyana.
