- David Harmanec received his M.Sc. from the Charles University in Prague in 1990.Then he starred his post-graduate study at the Institute of Computer Science,Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences, with Dr. Petr Hajek. Currently, he is enrolled inthe Ph.D. program at the Department of Systems Science and Industrial Engineering.Thomas J. Watson School of Engineering and Applied Science, BinghamtonUniversity-SUNY. He is also working as a research assistant in the Center forIntelligent Systems of the same Institution. His current research interests include theDempsrer-Shafer theory of evidence, uncertainty and information measures, fuzzy mea-sure theory, imprecise probabilities, logics of uncertainty, and uncertainty processing inexpen systems. He is an author or co-author of about twenty research papers.
