Mark F. Bocko is a Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering and Physics at the University of Rochester, serving as Chair of the Department of Computer and Electrical Engineering since 2004. He holds a BA from Colgate University and advanced degrees (MS/PhD) in Physics from the University of Rochester. His research spans superconducting digital electronics, quantum computing, music signal processing, and smart sensor systems. Notable awards include the Excellence in Undergraduate Teaching Award (1991, 2002) and Professor of the Year (2002). His research groups focus on high-frequency digital signal processing using Josephson junctions, quantum coherence in superconducting circuits, and applications in music technology such as internet-based real-time musical collaboration. Collaborations include work with the Eastman School of Music and local industries on sensor networks and wireless technologies. Key contributions include developing GHz-rate analog-to-digital converters, quantum bit control systems, and music encoding algorithms. His NSF-funded projects explore internet2 applications for musical interaction and physical modeling in music systems.
