- Waldemar Horwat received Bachelor's degrees in mathematics and electrical
- engineering from MIT in 1988, a Master's degree in computer science at MIT in
- 1989, and is currently working on a Ph.D. degree in computer science at MIT.
- Waldemar has been working on the J-Machine project, a 1024-processor MIMD
- parallel computer, since 1986 and is currently using it to investigate parallel
- data structure abstractions. He is working on parallel programming,
- programming languages, compilers, operating systems, and communications, with a
- view of defining new notions of compilation, abstraction, and cooperative
- programmer-compiler optimization in programming languages and systems.
-
- Waldemar is a Putnam fellow, gold medal winner at the 1985 International
- Mathematical Olympiad in Helsinki, Finland, and winner of MIT prizes for best
- electrical engineering project and best thesis in computer science. Waldemar
- also won the Wizard award from the Boston Computer Society's Macintosh
- Technical Group.
-
- Waldemar wrote the TMON debugger (as a junior in high school), TMON
- Professional, and helped write the kernel of ICOM Simulations' adventure games
- Deja Vu, Uninvited, Shadowgate, and Deja Vu II. Recently he wrote Deja Vu,
- Uninvited, Shadowgate, and Deja Vu II for Microsoft Windows. Waldemar was the
- proceedings chairman for the 1990 through 1993 MacHack conferences (which
- explains why his papers got accepted every time).
