Nathan Fisher

Nathan Fisher is Professor of Computer Science at Wayne State University's College of Engineering. He earned his PhD from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2007, specializing in real-time systems and embedded computing. His research develops scheduling algorithms and resource allocation strategies for secure, efficient computing systems.

Fisher's work spans security-aware scheduling models, cache optimization for multicore processors, and swarm robotics coordination. Recent publications focus on limited-preemption scheduling, adaptive task management, and hardware-software co-design approaches for real-time systems.

He teaches graduate seminars on advanced computing topics and has developed novel scheduling frameworks that balance performance with security constraints in cyber-physical environments.
