Logan Reyes was named by his parents after James “Logan” Howlett, otherwise known by his codename Wolverine. Perhaps Marvel’s superhero is an apt comparison for a young man who states that he “wakes up every day striving to make an impact.”  People may not recognize him behind today’s civilian mask, but many know his work; and his effervescent smile and energy are no match for minor obstacles brought on by a pandemic anyway.  The New Jersey resident is already on a rapid trajectory to greatness, having advanced early to his junior year as a dean’s list student in NJIT’s Ying...

Bhargav Samineni loves applied math, and there are few better ways to see math in action than working on scientific computing problems with a mentor from a chip company like AMD. Samineni interned last summer at the University of California/Los Angeles - Institute for Pure and Applied Mathematics, under guidance from an AMD scientific computing engineer in the application of neural networks to acoustic wave propagation, as an exercise in machine learning and a demonstration of the company's graphics processing units. The NJIT senior from East Brunswick, an Albert Dorman Honors College...

Four professors across the globe are collaborating to solve real-world problems in cybersecurity, health, and various areas of social science through a project called Streaming Graph Algorithms under the new Institute for Future Technologies, a partnership between New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) and Ben-Gurion of the Negev University (BGU). David Bader, distinguished professor and director of the Institute for Data Science at NJIT, and Michael Elkin,  professor in the department of computer science at BGU, are the project leads along with Ioannis Koutis, NJIT associate...

"Why not both?" is a social media meme, but it's also the proposed answer to a problem for the designers of virtual reality systems, who generally must rely on wireless signals that are reliable but not as fast as needed. It's already hard enough to make virtual reality look realistic, without choppiness or delays, when a user is sitting still and plugged into a wired network, NJIT Associate Professor Jacob Chakareski explained. But making a system that's wireless, adding multiple users and incorporating six degrees of freedom — where a person controls the pitch, roll and yaw of their head...
