NSF Grant Awarded!
Robert Schweller and Tim Wylie were just awarded a 3-year NSF grant for the project “Unifying Self-Assembly through Tile Automata.” We are extremely excited about the number of opportunities this will open up for the research group.

Short abstract accepted to JCDCG^3 2018
A short abstract and presentation was accepted to be presented at the 21st Japan Conference on Discrete and Computational Geometry, Graphs, and Games. The paper, titled Tile Pattern-Building Games on a Grid are PSPACE-complete, is the outcome of a class project led by Angel and Austin from the Spring 2017 special topics course on games and computation. The full author list is Arturo Gonzalez, Cesar Lozano, Austin Luchsinger, Eduardo Medina, Fernando Martinez, Arnoldo Ramirez, and Tim Wylie.

New summer researchers
We have several new students working with us this summer on a variety of topics. They are being added to the members section and will have more information up shortly including contact information/etc. We’re excited to have everyone on board!
