Teaching
I have been teaching at La Salle since May 1999. Prior to that, I taught
at Rutgers-Camden (starting in 1991). This spring
I am teaching
CSC 280 - Object Programming (Java 2nd course)
CSC 456 - Artificial Intelligence, and
CIS 624 - Data Warehousing.
To see more info about my teaching
background/experience or for info about my current classes See
My Teaching Page.
Research
I have worked on research involving Case-Based Reasoning (CBR), sometimes
in combination with some other artificial intelligence areas, especially
learning. I am particularly excited about my recent work involving CBR
and law enforcement.
I published a paper at the International Conference on Case-Based Reasoning in Norway in summer 2003:
Redmond, M
Redmond, M. &
Line, C. (2003). Empirical Analysis of Case-based Reasoning and Other
Prediction Methods in a Social Science Domain: Repeat Criminal Victimization.
In Case-Based Reasoning Research and Development;Proceedings of 5th
International Conference on Case-Based Reasoning, Ashley, K. & Bridge,
D. (eds), June 2003, Trondheim, Norway. Springer-Verlag
Because of copyrights I cannot post the paper here, but I have a picture from Norway that is
pretty awesome.
I have also widened my research since coming to La Salle; my paper with Professors Tavana and Joglekar of the School of Business has been recently accepted for
publication.

Education:
I completed my Ph.D. in Computer Science at Georgia Tech in 1992, completing
my grand tour of the south. To see my educational background See
My Education Page.
I keep learning!!
Visual Basic, Java, C++, C, Pascal, Lisp, PL/I, COBOL are all languages I've spent a fair amount of time with.
The only languages that ever drove me insane were APL and ML,
though at this point I'd hate to have to go back to C++.
Used to belong to AACE (Association for the Advancement of Computing in Education)
Family
My wife, Susan Phillips ,
is the Physical Chemistry Lab Coordinator at the University of Pennsylvania.
That's right, she's no longer an Associate Professor of Chemistry at Holy
Family College , in Philadelphia. She had to leave after Jon and Cyndi left :-)
Oh, and she doesn't believe in "Holy Family University"
BTW, She received her PhD from Georgia Tech in 1986, before
I even started working on mine.
She has also taken up
kickboxing
(Frank, maybe this link will help you move up on Google!)
We were married at a church on Peachtree Street in Atlanta, in May 1990. (Oh my, 17 years!) We tell Bryan that Georgia is his ancestral homeland.
Bryan Redmond was born May 28, 1994. I can't believe he's 14! He asked me to change the link to remove his middle name
in hopes that searching for him on Google would work as well with Bryan Redmond
as with Bryan Phillips Redmond.
His current life goal is to rule the world - he wants to emulate Bill Gates - Go Figure!
He sent his first letter to the president in spring 2006 (about NCLB).
If I can brag (and it's my website, so why not?)
He made the NJ state Geography Bee finals in 2008

Other Interests
I like playing and watching sports, and rock music. My youthful idealism
has faded, I don't think I've gotten involved in politics since I left
Charlotte NC way back when (well, we put up yard signs for Election 2004). Click
for more info, links, plus one of my favorite stories.
