Two professors and one graduate from the College of Science and Technology at Southern Arkansas University, Magnolia, have recently published significant articles in science journals.<\/p>\n
Dr. Henry W. Robison, distinguished professor of biology, co-authored an article with Dr. Thomas Turner of the University of New Mexico entitled \u201cGenetic Diversity of the Caddo Madtom, Noturus Taylori, with Comments on Factors that Promote Genetic Divergence in Fishes Endemic to the Ouachita Highlands.\u201d Their research in volume 51 of the journal The Southwestern Naturalist has implications for the conservation and management of fish species in areas where barriers such as dams and bridge construction may affect fish movement and re-colonization of native species.<\/p>\n
Dr. Hong Cheng, associate professor of math and computer science, is the co-author with Dr. Gui-Liang Feng of the University of Louisiana at Lafayette of the article entitled \u201cA Fast Implementation of Algorithms in Public-Key Cryptology\u201d that was published in the recent volume three of the Proceedings of Neural, Parallel, and Scientific Computations produced by Dynamic Publishers. Their work involved developing computer programs that reduce significantly the number of computations required to encrypt and decrypt secret messages associated with famous encryption and decryption algorithms used by business, industry, and government.<\/p>\n
Ly Phan, a recent graduate of SAU with a degree in computer science, is the senior author of an article published by the Eurographisc Association with Dr. Cindy Grimm of Washington University in St. Louis. The article, based on Phan\u2019s presentation at a workshop in Vienna, Austria, this last summer, is entitled \u201cSketching Reaction-Diffusion Texture.\u201d Their work involved the development of computer programs that allow the creation of more complex textures, including realistic 3D surfaces, that could be applied to fabric or construction surfaces. Phan is working on a Ph.D. in computer science at Washington University.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
