J. Holly DeBlois

High Performance Computing Research Group, 2015 - 2019
Department of Computer Science
University of Massachusetts Boston

I received a Ph.D. degree in Computer Science from the University of Massachusetts Boston in December 2019. Previously, I received an M.S. degree in Applied Mathematics from Harvard University. I also received a B.A. degree in Government from Smith College.

My research area is algorithms and parallel computing. Also scene classifiers using CUDA. Previously, I did research in sensor networks and molecular communication. I am also an experienced software engineer.

As of September 2023, I am a lecturer in Computer Science at University of Massachusetts Boston. I teach two sections of CS444 and one section of CS410.

Curriculum Vitae

My CV contains both academic and industry information.

Teaching cs410-01:

Syllabus

Homework0 -- fixed 5Feb

Classnotes410

w3schools/html

Classproj1 for 410 - has assignment for Wed Jan 29

MIT_Writing_Code

COLLABORATION POLICY: Use the Spring 2012 6.005 Rob Miller policy found in the above handbook selection. Add to it that for team discussions, reading and comparing each others code is necessary. Be considerate when a change you want to make means someone else has to change their code too. Code that you wrote even if it does not get used in the final version, is still excellent code and to your credit.

handwr1 for classproj1

JHD has classproj1 collected and corporations, 3 or 4 students assigned to each. For Classproj2, you will join your corporation and write its index.html, but first we do handwr2 and finish Classproj1.

MIT_Writing_Code

COLLABORATION POLICY: Use the Spring 2012 6.005 Rob Miller policy found in the above handbook selection. Source any code you use from outside by putting comments in your code as shown. The graders and I will run MOSS - Measure of Software Similarity - from Stanford on all students' submitted project code. This is to prevent copying code from another student. MOSS score > 45% may give both students a zero score.
