Since August 2003, Assistant Professor of Computer Science, Department of Computer Science, University of Texas - Pan American. Recent graduate of the University of New Mexico, received his PhD in Computer Science where his thesis was on Symbolic and Algebraic computations, in particularly the Elimination Theory. It has a lot of applications across the disciplines including chemistry, robotics, computer vision, geometric modeling and automated theorem proving. As a researcher he has published around 8 articles on this subject during his PhD studies. He is currently working on a small book/monograph on the subject of his research, which is due sometime next year.
At UTPA he teaches Computer Architecture, Programming Language Design and Compiler Construction as well as next semester he will teach Computer Networks and C++ programming. His teaching experience is not limited to UTPA, he has spent a previous year at the University of Wyoming as a Visiting Assistant Professor. There he has been teaching Computer Design, Computer Architecture and Computer Networking.
He was born in Lithuania, a small country in Europe, former Republic of Soviet Union. After finishing a technically specialized high school in Lithuania he moved to USA to study at a community college in upstate New York. After which, he transferred to local university (State University of New York at Albany) where he received his bachelors and masters degree (summa cum laude) in computer science and applied mathematics. Then, he moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico to pursue PhD in Computer Science. Before completely his degree, he joined the University of Wyoming, and after defending his dissertation joined UTPA at Edinburg, Texas.
