Bibliography by gadl.
The computer science lab I work in is being relocated to another place in Paris. So while movers are having fun with our 13-storey building, I carried my paper collection home so I could work. This pile is almost everything I have to cite in my thesis. It's rather daunting, especially if you know that I printed most papers in a "two pages per side" layout to save paper. Fortunately it's already mostly sorted, annotated, and indexed

(to the tune of hakuna matata)
ω-automata: what a wonderful phrase.
ω-automata: ain't no passing phase.

I did my masters in theoretical computer science too (With Jeff Shallit). Sometimes I miss it.

My Erdos number is two - so that's nice.

I thought that one of the most important impact of computer science would have been to save paper... and trees... and planet warming !

@Dave: if you like singing math, you probably know about The Klein Four Group? I bought their CD a couple of months ago (unfortunately the 2-page booklet does not include the lyrics, so it's a bit hard for me to get every pun).

Good for you to have such a small Erdos number, it's half of the requirements to get your Nobel price :)

@papa: Maybe in a few years we'll have user interfaces that are as easy to use as paper, but right now they aren't. I want to be able to lay out several pages in front of me, annotate them in all sort of ways, mark some pages dog-eared, etc.

I also have the equivalent stack of papers into my computer. I only use it when I'm searching for something, or when my printed version is out of reach.

Checked out the Klein four group - definately will look into them more.

@world citizen - I'm not sure many people would agree that less paper consumption is "the most important impact of computer science" because
a) the sheer magnitude of other impacts computer science has had a hand in.
b) the paper consumption is likely up not down.

I checked the group too, very funny! gadl, you can actually get the lyrics on their website.

@dave: "On April 20, 2004 Bill Tozier, a researcher with Erdős number 4, offered the chance for collaboration to attain an Erdős number 5 in an auction on eBay. The final bid was $1,031" (Wikipedia). If you don't win the Nobel prize, at least you can earn some money... :)

Thank you so much for publishing with a CC. I too, used your photo in a post for a woman's writing group:

chrysaliswomenwriters.wordpress.com

Perhaps the photo of your thesis is just as popular as the thesis?
Thanks.
