Take a look at my Java applets.

Curriculum Vita

Here is a draft of my CV in Adobe PDF format. It is also available in postscript, and here it is in excessively-hyperlinked HTML format all generated from the same L^AT_EX file. It's still incomplete, but I'm working on it.

Economic Research

My research interests include Finance, Industrial Organization, and Technological Progress-related topics.

Recent work includes a co-authored paper published in the November 1997 edition of the Journal of Productivity Analysis. An abstract and downloadable copies of the accepted draft in Adobe PDF and Postscript formats are available.

WWW, Java, and CGI Programming

I have developed some interactive web pages using the perl, c++, and java programming languages.
 

• Java applets for Microeconomics and Econometrics courses.

• Jump to Linear Programming to check out two CGI applications I wrote.

Linear Programming

• The Web_Solver is a program I wrote in C++ that demonstrates the Simplex method of solving linear programming problems via the Web. After the user inputs a linear program, it outputs a sequence of tableaus leading to a final solution. Interpretation of the final tableau is left to the student. Some explanation of the program is available here.
• I also wrote a web interface in Perl to the public domain linear program solver called lp_solve. For a short description of how it works, click here. There is also a man page to an older version of lp_solve (1.5) which, for the most part, is applicable to the version used for the interface (2.0).
• An alternative Web-based linear program solver called Interactive Linear Programming is located at UC Berkeley.
• I made an Excel spreadsheet which is useful for visualizing small LP problems graphically. It uses a miniature diet problem as an example, but it can be easily adapted to work for other small problems. Download Spreadsheet
• If you want to know more about available software for linear programming and linear programming in general, try the Linear Programming FAQ. If nonlinear programming is your bag, try the Nonlinear Programming FAQ.

• I scanned in a couple of photos.  I hope to do more of this in the future.
• Now through April, 1998 I am a Counseling Assistant with the UCLA College of Letters and Science.  I have a biography published at their web site.
