Bio:
SIGGRAPH 1995
Gregory M. Nielson is a professor of computer science and adjunct professor of mathematics at Arizona State University where he teaches and does research in the areas of Computer Graphics, Computer Aided Geometric Design and Scientific Visualization. He has lectured and published widely on the topics of curve and surface representation and design; interactive computer graphics; scattered data modeling; and the analysis and visualization of multivariate data. He has collaborated with several institutions including NASA, Xerox, and General Motors and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. Professor Nielson is on the editorial board of the Rocky Mountain Journal of Mathematics, Computer Aided Geometric Design, Visualization and Computer Animation Journal, Computer Graphics (Russian) and Computer Graphics and Applications. He is one of the founders of the new IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics. He is one of the founders and members of the steering committee of the Visualization conference series and he is currently a director of the IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Computer Graphics. Professor Nielson is the recipient of a Computer Society Meritorious Service Award in 1993 and an Outstanding Contribution Award in 1995. Professor Nielson received his Ph.D. from the University of Utah in 1970.
