Biography:Jeffrey Eppinger
Jeffrey Lee Eppinger (born ca 1960) is an American computer scientist, entrepreneur and professor at the Carnegie Mellon University, School of Computer Science.[1]
Biography
Eppinger was a student at Carnegie Mellon University, where in 1983, he won the George E. Forsythe Award for best undergraduate paper on his research in binary search trees.[1][2] Eppinger had made empirical studies of their behaviour under random deletions and insertions.[3]
Eppinger earned his PhD in Computer Science in 1988.[1] His dissertation demonstrated the integration of the Mach Operating System's virtual memory with the Camelot Transaction System.[4] This recoverable virtual memory concept was subsequently used to implement the Coda file system.[5]
Eppinger was a co-founder of Transarc Corporation, which was acquired by IBM in 1994.[1][6]
In 2001, Eppinger returned to Carnegie Mellon as Professor of the Practice in the School of Computer Science.[1]

Eppinger is married with two children.[1]
