On Nov 8th the program was an excellent presentation called "DNA and Genealogy
Research" by Dr. William Remus. William Remus is an Emeritus
Professor of Information Technology Management at the University of Hawaii.

Emeritus was a term used by the Roman Army for retired Roman warriors; that is,
men no longer needed to fight alongside the other legionnaires in Rome's many
wars (Roman Legionnaires were lucky to get out alive). He continues to use his
expertise as he works with doctoral students on their dissertations. He
has published over 100 scientific papers including over 60 refereed journal
articles, 5 books, and 5 book chapters. The best of this work has appeared in Management
Science, Management Information Systems Quarterly, Organizational
Behavior and Human Decision Processes, and International Journal of
Forecasting. A 1996 citation analysis of the research on Decision Support
ranks him 6th in the
world in his contribution to research in cognitive factors and 10th in the world in research on interface design (Eom in Decision Support Systems, 1996).
