Once again, the faculty at RIT have created a substantial body of work during the past academic year. As a result of their committed efforts, both the quality and quantity of the research, scholarship, and creative work produced at RIT has steadily increased compared to previous years. Our new strategic plan, “Greatness Through Difference” underscores our vision to make RIT a pre-eminent student-centered research university. This includes faculty engaged in creative inquiry, the applications of new and existing technologies to solve industrial challenges, as well as interdisciplinary work that crosses and intersects traditional boundaries. The research, pedagogical undertakings and scholarly activities our faculty members embark on continues to impact the students we teach, our peers within the academic community, and the world. The connections made by RIT faculty through research, scholarship and creative work establish new opportunities for our students, and prepare them for the next stage of their careers. It is through these diverse scholarly pursuits that students and faculty are able to collaborate across international borders, and bring new insights and perspectives to their work. It is with great pride that I present this report highlighting our faculty’s scholarly achievements during 2014.

Thomas Golisano College of Computing and Information Sciences 5 Featured Faculty MATTHEW FLUET IS AN ASSISTANT PROFESSOR IN THE DEPARTMENT OF COMPUTER SCIENCE IN THE B. THOMAS GOLISANO COLLEGE OF COMPUTING AND INFORMATION SCIENCES. HIS RESEARCH INTERESTS LIE WITH THE DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF FUNCTIONAL PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES. Programming languages are the medium through which computations are communicated, not only from a programmer to a computer, but also from one programmer to another. Dr. Fluet’s research aims to design and implement pro- gramming languages that make it easy to write programs that are both executed efficiently and guaranteed to be safe. Recently, his major scholarship activities have been centered around the Manticore and MLton projects. The Manticore project (http://manticore.cs.uchicago.edu), in collaboration with Prof. John Reppy (University of Chicago) and students at RIT and UChicago, is a re- search effort to design and implement a parallel functional programming language that targets commodity multicore and shared-memory multiprocessors. The project has been supported by multiple NSF awards and yielded numerous publications. Dr. Fluet gave an invited talk on Manticore at the Second ACM SIGPLAN Workshop on Functional High-Performance Computing (FHPC’13). Dr. Fluet’s current research is focused on developing declarative language mechanisms for the controlled use of shared state and nondeterminism in parallel programs in order to increase their parallel efficiency. The MLton project (http://www.mlton.org), led by Dr. Fluet, is an open-source whole-program optimizing compiler for the Standard ML (SML) functional program- ming language.

  • Part I: Introduction
    Part I: Introduction “Perhaps the sentiments contained in the following pages are not yet sufficiently fashionable to procure them general favor; a long habit of not thinking a thing wrong gives it a superficial appearance of being right, and raises at first a formidable outcry in defense of custom. But the tumult soon subsides. Time makes more converts than reason.” -Thomas Paine, Common Sense (1776) “For my part, whatever anguish of spirit it may cost, I am willing to know the whole truth; to know the worst and provide for it.” -Patrick Henry (1776) “I am aware that many object to the severity of my language; but is there not cause for severity? I will be as harsh as truth. On this subject I do not wish to think, or speak, or write, with moderation. No! No! Tell a man whose house is on fire to give a moderate alarm; tell him to moderately rescue his wife from the hands of the ravisher; tell the mother to gradually extricate her babe from the fire into which it has fallen -- but urge me not to use moderation in a cause like the present. The apathy of the people is enough to make every statue leap from its pedestal, and to hasten the resurrection of the dead.” -William Lloyd Garrison, The Liberator (1831) “Gas is running low . .” -Amelia Earhart (July 2, 1937) 1 2 Dear Reader, Civilization as we know it is coming to an end soon.

    CHAPTER 38 THE GEOGRAPHY OF GALATIA Gal 1:2; Act 18:23; 1 Cor 16:1 Mark Wilson KEY POINTS • Galatia is both a region and a province in central Asia Minor. • The main cities of north Galatia were settled by the Gauls in the third cen- tury bc. • The main cities of south Galatia were founded by the Greeks starting in the third century bc. • Galatia became a Roman province in 25 bc, and the Romans established colonies in many of its cities. • Pamphylia was part of Galatia in Paul’s day, so Perga and Attalia were cities in south Galatia.

Designed and built in-house by our staff of engineers, this robotic “Drum Machine,” called the Gluing Gantry, ensures that every Evans head has a true collar. A series of vacuum fixtures holds the film in place for each head while the robotic gluing arm circles above the hoop and dispenses epoxy. The result is a drumhead that tunes both easily and consistently. At Evans, we do it right the first time. And every time. Check out what Peter Erskine has to say about Evans drumheads at www.evansdrumheads.com PO Box 290 • Farmingdale, NY 11735 We’ve been making the world’s finest sticks for years. And experience tells us that there are no shortcuts when it comes to making a stick. There is, however a very good short- cut when choosing one. The journey from wooden dowel to finished drumstick is a tough one. Each stick makes its way through the hands of several craftsmen before it leaves us. And at every test, there’s always the chance of getting turned into firewood. But it does get easier when our sticks reach the store. Because once you feel a pair in your hands, you’ll appreciate the time it spent in ours.
