Dr. Joan Peckham is a professor of Computer Science at the University of Rhode Island, USA. In the 1990s she pursued semantic data modeling research in the context of active databases. She is currently interested in the application of these techniques to software engineering tools. She is concurrently working on a project to develop learning communities for freshman, with the goal of encouraging women and other underrepresented groups into the technical disciplines. She is also working with colleagues in engineering and the biological sciences to apply computing techniques to the fields of transportation and bioinformatics, respectively.
