Staff Profile

Summary

Tom Anderson obtained his PhD in 1972 for work at Newcastle University on syntactic analysis, and joined the University's Computing Laboratory as a Research Associate investigating software fault tolerance. He spent 1978-79 at NASA's Langley Research Center (Virginia), and then became Lecturer, and then Professor of Computing Science at Newcastle in 1987.

From 1980 onwards he acted as PI for a series of major research projects, including a large-scale experimental evaluation of software fault tolerance techniques and a 17 year industrially funded project on dependable systems.

In 1984 he established the Center for Software Reliability (CSR) at Newcastle, operating in conjuction with a sister center at City University; he was the CSR Director until 2012. During that period the center hosted numerous research projects and also managed the UK national industry oriented "Clubs" on Sofware Reliability & Metrics and on Safety-Critical Systems. Over a 35 year period CSR operated more than 250 external events with almost 20,000 delegate registrations.

From 1992-97 he was Head of Computing Science; 1998-2002 Dean of Science; 2008-2012 SAgE Dean of Business Development; 2012-2016 School of Computing Science (part-time).

Retired from Newcastle University from August 2016, but maintaining engagement in outreach via CSR Events.

Research Interests

System dependability and resilience, system and interface structuring, safety critical systems, system requirements, software fault tolerance and fault tolerant systems.

All over now, but down the years I taught courses on: formal models of computation (automata and formal grammars), introductory programming, fault tolerance and system dependability, and on algorithms. Plus, but to a lesser degree, material on numerical methods, IT and society. And – of course – supervision of PhD students and of MSc projects.
