2011 - ACM Fellow For contributions to human-computer interaction.

Overview

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date

His study on Epistemology is mostly dedicated to connecting different topics, such as Naturalism and Property (philosophy). Property (philosophy) connects with themes related to Epistemology in his study. Programming language connects with themes related to Semantics (computer science) and Index (typography) in his study. He undertakes multidisciplinary investigations into Semantics (computer science) and Programming language in his work. His study on Index (typography) is mostly dedicated to connecting different topics, such as World Wide Web. He incorporates World Wide Web and Information retrieval in his research. George W. Furnas conducts interdisciplinary study in the fields of Information retrieval and Natural language processing through his research. His research on Natural language processing often connects related areas such as Word length. His research on Linguistics often connects related areas such as Word (group theory), Human language, Vocabulary, Word length and Object (grammar).

George W. Furnas most often published in these fields:
