At the National Science Foundation: as Program Director from 1977-78 administered a $3 million program that included instrumentation grants under the Instructional Scientific Equipment Program (ISEP) and the Local Course Improvement Program (LOCI) with a national audience and responsibility for selection among 1400 proposals through panels and other review processes; interfaced on occasion with reviews from OSTP and congressional liaisons. As Program Director of the Interactive Systems Program in the Information, Robotics, and Intelligent Systems Division (September, 1992 to December, 1994) in the CISE Directorate managed a rapid growth broadly based program in human-computer interaction research and education, that grew from $3.6M in 1992 to $5.4M in 1994.
4. As President of the IEEE Computer Society: managed a staff of some 50 employees with assets of some $12 million, started with an initial annual budget of $3.6 million and left it with a budget in the black of more than $7 million and larger assets after two years, established three new magazines, hired editors and became involved in detailed personnel matters as Chair of the Operations Committee, obtained a greater political representation for the Computer Society in the Board of Directors of the IEEE, established and hired for the position of Executive Director, and was decisively involved with new building acquisitions and financing studies for the Society in California and Washington, D.C., established an improved program of membership promotion, established deep collaborative relations with sister Societies (such as ACM) which culminated with the creation of the Computer Sciences Accreditation Board now accepted by COPA, managed a core of some 200 volunteers through an Executive Committee, Governing Board, and Technical Activities, Publications, Education, Standards, Area Activities, and Conference and Tutorials Boards, was elected for two consecutive years to the IEEE Board of Directors involved in the administration of the parent organization (of about $44 million budget).

While there, I was able to secure a significant equipment donation from AT&T. Directed three dissertations and five Master’s thesis.
6. At Wright State University, as Chairman and NCR Distinguished Professor, Department of Computer Science and Engineering interacted with chairs of other doctoral Computer Science programs in the state and obtained favorable treatment for a Computer Science Doctoral Program initiative which brought $500,000 annually to Wright State University.
