Welcome to my personal site. My name is Michael Barnathan (not the producer, my second cousin once removed) and I am a Computer Scientist specializing in Data Structures, Discrete and Continuous Mathematics (especially Number Theory and Statistics), Software Development, Web Development, Bioinformatics, Artificial Intelligence, Data Mining, and Artificial Creativity. However, I also have an extreme breadth of proficiencies, including System Administration, Musical Composition, Piano, Photography, Digital Art, Poetry, and Writing of all sorts.
I am currently a Ph. D. student (since Aug. 2006) in Computer and Information Sciences at Temple University's Data Engineering Laboratory (DEnLab), where I am also the system administrator after being rapidly recognized for Linux competence. My advisor is Vasilis Megalooikonomou.
I earned a Master of Science degree in Computer and Information Sciences from Temple University (in passing as a Ph. D. student) in Aug. 2007, one year after enrolling, with a GPA of 3.89.
My Bachelor of Science degree is in Computer Science with a minor in Mathematics. I earned it Summa Cum Laude from Monmouth University in 2006 with a GPA of 3.96. Among awards too numerous to list on this page, I received a $5,000 award at commencement for graduating with the highest GPA in my class.
Hopefully quite a bit. I am no longer taking on freelance work, but I'll be searching for a position after I graduate. Check out my résumé, CV, or portfolio, or contact me for more details. The old site is still up too.
If you're one of my CS503 students, you probably want this page.
