Jose M. Garrido is professor in the Department of Computer Science at Kennesaw State University. Dr. Garrido's research focuses on object-oriented modeling and simulation, multidisciplinary computational modeling, formal specification of real-time systems, language design and processors, and modeling systems performance. He developed the Psim3, PsimJ, and PsimJ2 simulation packages for C++ and Java as well as the Object-Oriented Simulation Language (OOSimL). He received a Ph.D. from George Mason University.
