COMPUTER SCIENCE and the MATHEMATICS GENEALOGY PROJECT Harry B. Coonce ∗ From the book of Genesis to the TCS genealogy of Ian Parberry [1] folks have been inquisitive about their roots. In academic disciplines ” such as computer science, mathematics, statistics, etc. ” people are frequently interested in their academic heritage. In 1997 a project to trace the development of these subjects via a person ™s academic advisor and a person ™s Ph.D. graduates. This project, the mathematics genealogy project, now has records on over 83,000 scholars. All people who have a Ph.D. (or D.Phil., or Dr. rer. nat., etc) in an academic area of the general mathematical sciences/arts are welcome and encouraged to submit their data. The project tries to obtain the following information about each individual: The degree recipients full name, the institution where the degree was earned, the year of the degree, the title of the dissertation and, most importantly, the full name of his/her advisor(s). Thus, a complete record might look as follows: Wolf, Marty Joseph; University of Wisconsin-Madison; 1990; Limited Nondeterminism in Parallel Models of Computation; Bach, C. Eric (Carl). After the data is received and verified the information is copied into our database and presented on the web at http://www.genealogy.math.ndsu.nodak.edu and the several mirrors. Links to the persons advisor(s) and to each of his/her known students are shown. In many cases this makes it possible to trace ones academic roots well back into the nineteenth century. Currently the project has records (some incomplete) on more than 83,000 individuals from over 1000 institutions in excess of eighty different countries. All research computer scientists are welcome. Please check the website for your name and then send us any missing data. There are two data submission forms on the web. One is for corrections or additions to an existing record, the other is for individuals who have earned an appropriate degree but do not appear in the database. These forms are best for one or two submissions. For larger sets of information it is better to send such data via email to harry.coonce@ndsu.nodak.edu. Complete records from a given university of all its Ph.D. degree recipients are especially solicited. Spread sheets or word documents are best but any format will do. We look forward to receiving your input. [1] Parberry, Ian. The TCS Genealogy [homepage].
