About me

Our group is in Department of Computer Science, College of Engineering , as a part of Computing program (including Ph.D.) at the Boise State University.

Dr. Long is also an affliated faculty to the Center for Advanced Energy Studies (CAES), at Idaho National Laboratory (INL).

Sponsored by NSF, DOE, INL, CAES and BSU, our research focuses on:

  • Astroinformatics: Automated spectral analysis using Artificial Intelligence (AI)
  • X-ray emission and absorption line analysis (astrophysics)
  • Computational hydrodynamics (HD) and magnetohydrodynamics (MHD)
  • High energy astrophysics, plasma, accretion, jets and outflow, galaxies
  • AI: Evolutionary algorithms and hybrid neuroevolution algorithms (computer science)
  • Scientific computing, high-performance computing
  • EXAFS and XPS spectra analysis (materials)
  • Multi-scale modeling of nuclear/irradiated materials, MOOSE/MARMOT/BISON (materials)

Graduate assistantships through Ph.D. program

Please visit Computing Ph.D. Program for more information about GA funds. We always welcome self-motivated graduate and undergraduate students who would like to engage in computational science and engineering, especially those who have a background in form one of the following fields: computer science (e.g., data science, high-performance computing), mechanical engineering (e.g. CFD), material science or physics. Some programming skills in one of languages like FORTRAN, C++, C and python are preferred. However, the self motivation is most valued.
