Striegel Receives NSF Career Award

Aaron Striegel, assistant professor of computer science and engineering, has been named a recipient of the National Science Foundation’s Early Career Development (CAREER) Award by the National Science Foundation. This is the highest honor given by the U.S. government to junior faculty in engineering and science.

Striegel joined the University in 2003. He received his bachelor’s degree and doctorate in computer engineering from Iowa State University. His research interests can be summarized by the broad concept of the Dependable Internet, specifically the components of quality of service, computer security, and fault tolerance. He is receiving the CAREER award for his work on stealth multicast techniques, titled “Transparent Bandwidth Conservation Techniques.”

The CAREER program, established in 1995, recognizes and supports “exceptionally promising college and university junior faculty who are committed to the integration of research and education,” says NSF Director Rita R. Colwell. “Its goal is to help top-performing scientists and engineers early in their careers to simultaneously develop their contributions and commitment to research and education.”
