Ursula Maydell
URSULA M. MAYDELL is an associate professor in the Department of Computing Science, University of Alberta, Edmonton. Her research area JS the performance of computer systems and networks, using modelling simulation, measurement, evaluation and forecasting methods. Her backs: ground in statistics and wide consulting experience at the university, inikistry, and government levels are utilized in projects motivated by practical application problems. Present projects include performance simulations of medical image display workloads running on workstations (PACS) which communicate and share resources via a local area network; as well as classifying performance methodologies for wide and local area networks. In 1973-74 she was a visiting professor in the Department of Informatik, University of Zurich, and in 1978 a visiting associate professor in the Digital Systems Lab., Stanford University. She spent two summers with the systems group at the IBM Research Lab., San Jose, Califomia. She is the guest editor of this INFOR issue.
