This page contains information about Bryce Boe, a second year Ph.D. Computer Science student at the lovely University of California at Santa Barbara. He is a member of the Computer Security Group under advisement from Christopher Kruegel. Bryce is also the Computer Science department’s Lead Teaching Assistant for the 2009 to 2010 school year as well as co-chair for both the 2009 and 2010 Graduate Student Workshop on Computing. Finally Bryce is the graduate representative for the Computer Science department’s Graduate Affairs Committee and the Treasurer of the department's Graduate Representatives (GREPs).
Bryce, a San Diego native, received his Bachelors of Science in Computer Science from UCSB in 2008. During his 6 years at UCSB, Bryce has gone from a minimal knowledge of HTML to being quite the hacker, meanwhile developing a taste for good beer. He competed four times in the Southern California Regional Programming Competition placing 5th in 2006. Bryce’s favorite programming languages are python for pretty much everything, and C for those times when it’s necessary.
When Bryce isn’t busy with academics, he can be found running for beer with the Hash House Harriers of Sant’o Barbara, hiking the phenomenal trails that Santa Barbara has to offer, or scuba diving in the Channel Islands. Perhaps the latter one hasn’t happened yet, however it soon will as Bryce is scuba certified and looking to log as many hours under water as possible.
For more information about Bryce, feel free to contact him at the email below his photo. He appreciates any and all feedback, comments or suggestions.

Projects
- CRAWL-E - A highly distributed web crawling framework written in Python
- auto_grade - An automated grading system that wraps around the TURNIN program used in our CS department.
- turnin_helper - A utility which attempts to minimize the amount of work a TA must do when manually grading projects submitted via TURNIN.
