Dr. Kenji Yoshigoe, is Professor at the College of Information Networking for Innovation and Design (INIAD), Toyo University. He received his B.S. in Computer Science and Ph.D. in Computer Science and Engineering from the University of South Florida in 2000 and 2004, respectively. During his tenure at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock (UALR), he has served as the Chair of the Department of Computer Science, the Director of the NSA Designated Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense Education (CAE-CDE), and the Director of the UALR Computational Research Center (CRC).Dr. Yoshigoe has founded the UALR CRC in 2012. CRC is dedicated to the promotion of efficiency, productivity, and accuracy in research through the use of significant and diverse computing resources and is designed to address the diversity of research community and to serve varied computational requirements of this diversified environment at UALR. This center is unique to Arkansas and brings a new level of computing capacity and capability to education, corporate, and government research organizations.Dr. Yoshigoe’s research explores new algorithms, protocols, and architectures for various interconnected systems ranging from tightly-coupled high performance computing systems to resource-constrained wireless sensor networks to dynamically evolving social networks. He is currently investigating emerging issues of efficiently handling data while protecting privacy and security on these systems in the age of big data analytics. Dr. Yoshigoe is a recipient of many funding awards from the National Science Foundation, Department of Defense, and National Institute of Health. He is an editorial board member of IET Wireless Sensor Systems and River Publishers Journal of Cyber Security and Mobility – Special Issue on Big Data Theory and Practice, has co-chaired on the International Symposium on Modeling and Optimization and IEEE International High Assurance Systems Engineering, and serves as a technical committee member on many international conferences and workshops. |
