Edith Hemaspaandra
Edith Hemaspaandra (née Spaan, born February 20, 1964) is a Dutch-American theoretical computer scientist whose research concerns computational social choice, the computational complexity theory of problems in social choice theory, and particularly on computational problems involving election manipulation. She is a professor of computer science at the Rochester Institute of Technology.
Early life and education
[edit]Edith Spaan was born on February 20, 1964, in Schagen, and educated in computer science at the University of Amsterdam. She earned a bachelor's degree there in 1986, and a master's degree in 1988.[1] She completed her Ph.D. in 1993, with the dissertation Complexity of Modal Logics combining complexity theory and modal logic, supervised by Johan van Benthem.[1][2]
When she and her husband (formerly named Lane Hemachandra) married, they both changed their surname to Hemaspaandra.[3]
Career
[edit]After postdoctoral research at the University at Buffalo,[1] supervised by Alan Selman,[4] Hemaspaandra taught at Le Moyne College from 1993 until 1998. She took her present position at the Rochester Institute of Technology in 1998.[1] She is a full professor in the Golisano College of Computing and Information Sciences at the Rochester Institute of Technology.[5]
