Here's a partial list of my publications, including workshop papers and such. It probably isn't up-to-date, but I do feel guilty about that. On the other hand, at least now it's cute and automated. It required hacking someone else's perl code, stringing together and modifying three different code bases, and dealing with a file length feature in NFS, but I got tenure, and--who knows?--maybe that's what made the difference.
BTW, where I've provided PDFs, I should point out that they are usually copyright the publisher, something about only for academic use, something else legal, etc.
