2006 Outstanding Male Undergraduate Award Runner-Up

Kanat Tangwongsan is a senior at Carnegie Mellon University, majoring in Computer Science.

Kanat's research combines theoretical computer science and system building. His primary work is toward a semi-automated system for converting static algorithms that compute an output from an input into dynamic algorithms that efficiently maintain an input/output relationship as the input changes incrementally. This work has required both system-building skills and the theoretical discovery of new algorithms and data structures. The work has led to one publication and two more papers currently in preparation.

In addition to his research and the time required to obtain a perfect GPA, Kanat spends a lot of time as a teaching assistant and mentoring other students. Prior to entering CMU, Kanat won first place in Thailand's National Olympiad of Informatics in 2000.
