Student Earns Best Paper Award at ACM Conference


(April 30, 2008) Armstrong Atlantic State University student Iyatiti Mokube won the Best Student Paper Award at the 46th Annual Association of Computing Machinerys (ACM) Southeast Regional Conference held recently in Auburn, Alabama.

The ACM Southeast Conference is the oldest continuously running annual conference of the ACM. Mokube's paper, "Digital Forensics: Forensic Analysis of an iPod Shuffle," was named the Best Student Paper by a panel of judges. Mokube beat out 25 other student papers.

Mokube, originally from Cameroon in west central Africa, earned a masters of science degree in computer science in December 2007. She is the first graduate to complete the degree under the thesis option. All previous graduates of the masters in computer science completed the degree with a project option.

Stephen Jodis, interim dean of the School of Computing at Armstrong Atlantic, served as advisor for Mokube's thesis project.
