  "When I came to Armstrong about four years ago, there were four faculty in our department of computer science; now we have 20," says Dr. Ray Greenlaw, dean of the new school and regional coordinator for Yamacraw, a $100 million, in-state economic plan designed to bring high-tech companies and jobs to Georgia.
  
  Armstrong now offers a bachelor of information technology and a master of science in computer science.The former -- whose instruction includes systems analysis and design, e-commerce, and client server systems -- consists of 11 courses.The latter -- whose instruction includes hand-held and ubiquitous computing, embedded systems programming, mobile computing and computer security -- consists of 13.
  
  Additionally, this past year Armstrong has begun awarding two certificates in information technology.Four courses are required to achieve the first, two more for the second.
  ...
  According to Greenlaw, two forces led to the increase in computer awareness at Armstrong: leadership changes at the school and a University System that in general was pushing technology.
  
  "As recently as a month ago, I read a study where 2.4 million jobs will be created in IT in the next seven years in the U.S.," Greenlaw says."We had leadership in place and enough talented people here to attract more and grow the program.The thinking was we could be a leader in computer science."
  
  Advising Greenlaw throughout this growth has been the business community.
  
  "I am a frequent attendee of BETA meetings," Greenlaw says, speaking of the Business and Education and Technology Alliance, which has monthly meetings in which key business leaders in Savannah meet with educators to try to determine the technology needs facing the area.
  
  There is also at Armstrong a $2.4 million project for JAVA programming.
  
  "In the Savannah area, there's a real shortage of computer programmers, especially JAVA programmers," Greenlaw says.
  
  At Georgia Southern University, too, changes in course offerings are made with input from the business community.

  Climb of their lives: Eliot pair recounts Antarctica... - [Cached Version]

  Peter Goransson, left, of Eliot, Maine and Ray Greenlaw, formerly of Lee, N.H., stand at Vinson Base Camp on the Branscomb Glacier in Antarctica.
  ...
  Along with 43-year-old Greenlaw, formerly a professor at the University of New Hampshire, Peter and Paul reached Vinson's summit on Jan. 10, a feat accomplished by only about 400 people to date.
  ...
  When the idea was hatched by Greenlaw in August, the three begin to prepare for a climb up a mountain that stands 16,067 feet high, but reportedly can feel like 21,000 feet when the thin air is factored in.
  ...
  Greenlaw has now reached the summit of five of the seven continents' highest mountain peaks, including Mount Elbrus in the European region of Russia (18,841 feet), Aconcagua, Argentina (22,840) in South America, Kilimanjaro, Tanzania (19,339 feet) in Africa and Kosciusko, Australia (7,310).
  ...
  The Goranssons and Greenlaw rode on a Cold War-era Russian cargo plane and landed on a glacier in Antarctica.
  ...
  Paul suffered slight frostbite on both of his cheeks, while Greenlaw suffered frostbite on the tip of one of his hands and frostnip, an early stage of frostbite, on his cheek.
  ...
  Over the week it took to reach the summit, Greenlaw said the challenge became tougher the closer they got to the top.
  
  "The hardest part was (climbing) the summit ridge," Greenlaw said."Our goggles were iced up.There's just a narrow summit ridge."
  
  "That was very hairy," said Greenlaw of hiking as a group tied together by a rope that would sometimes get caught on lips of ice.
  ...
  Peter tried to get his picture taken with a Tufts flag, which quickly blew away and Greenlaw tried unsuccessfully with an American flag.
  ...
  "It was so cold that I knew we still needed to get down safely, so we didn't do any celebrating," Greenlaw said.
  
  That's because the same bottomless crevasses, or cracks in the ice, haunted Greenlaw and the Goranssons.
  ...
  Greenlaw is the Dean of the School of Computing at Armstrong University in Savannah, Georgia.He lived in New Hampshire and worked in UNH's computer science department for 10 years before moving in 1998.
  
  He always craves adventure, but even he admitted it was good to get home.
  
  "When I came back, I was happy to just stand on asphalt and not be on ice," Greenlaw said.He considered this one of the riskiest things he's ever done.
  ...
  "It's almost like a lifestyle," Greenlaw said of his and Paul's mountaineering.

  Ray Greenlaw is the Southeast Regional Coordinator for Yamacraw, a unique strategic economic development initiative that is making Georgia a world leader in the design of broadband (high-speed) communications systems, devices and chips.The Yamacraw initiative combines the efforts of private enterprise, academia and state government to leverage Georgia's existing high-technology base and its global leadership position in broadband technology research.Yamacraw focuses on three targeted areas of broadband technology: system prototyping, high-speed access devices and embedded software.
  
  As the Southeast Regional Coordinator, Greenlaw is responsible for managing Yamacraw's relationships with Armstrong Atlantic State University, Georgia Southern University, Savannah State University, and the Georgia Tech Regional Engineering Program (GTREP), and fostering collaboration to increase awareness of Yamacraw throughout the state of Georgia.Greenlaw oversees the hiring of qualified faculty in the region, organizes events including Yamacraw's Distinguished Speaker Series, and serves as regional spokesperson.
  
  Greenlaw is professor of computer science and department head at ArmstrongAtlantic State University and his research is supported by the National Science Foundation, Fulbright Foundation, Japanese, Spanish, and Italian governments, German Fulbright Foundation, and Qosnetics Corporation.He is a two-time ARCS scholar, two-time Fulbright scholar, Humboldt Fellowship recipient, Spanish Fellowship recipient, and JSPS fellowship recipient.
  
  Greenlaw received a B.A. from Pomona College in Claremont, Calif., and an M.S. and Ph.D. from the University of Washington.Greenlaw's technical papers have appeared in more than 30 different journals and conference proceedings, and he is the author of 12 technical books.Greenlaw is considered one of the leading experts in the world on parallel computation and his book Limits to Parallel Computation, co-written by Jim Hoover (University of Alberta) and Larry Ruzzo (University of Washington), is considered the definitive reference in the field.

  The company will not only provide hands-on experience for students in highly marketable skills such as military communications software and cyber security, it will provide jobs for graduates in a field where starting salaries for those with bachelor's degrees in computer science are about $52,000, said Raymond Greenlaw, dean of Armstrong's School of Computing and a professor of computer science.
  ...
  The best and brightest are the most marketable," Greenlaw said."If we don't have high-tech companies here, they're going to go to Boston, Silicon Valley, Austin and get jobs there and we will lose them."
  
  Not good, Greenlaw said, since these knowledge-based workers are typically the most active in their communities.
  
  "They care about education and typically have the resources to give back to the community and the institution," he said."They're people who are very energetic usually, so we hate to lose contributors."
  
  ProLogic's on-campus presence also will be a valuable recruiting tool for Armstrong, both for students and faculty, Greenlaw said.
  
  "When students and parents come in here they want to know if their kids can work in Georgia with the degree they're going to get and what will they earn, we'll have a company with a presence right here that we helped bring here, and that's a huge selling point," Greenlaw said.
