Reuben Budiardja's Home Page

Reuben image Welcome to my personal page. This page is still under construction and constant update as time allowed, so come back for another visit once in a while.

On this site you can read all about me, my projects, interests, thoughts, and some updates about my self. There are also some interesting and non-interesting links, useful (to some people) and useless articles, linux how-tos and tips that I wrote or found, and a whole bunch of other stuffs. I have a lot of interests, ranging from science, philosophy, theology, to music, computer movies, and a bit of computer games. So the contents of this site is quite diverse.

About Me

I graduated from Goshen College with baccalaureate degree in Physics (with honors) and applied Mathematics. I am currently a graduate student in University of Tennesee in Knoxville, TN, pursuing a doctoral degree in Physics. My graduate study is supported by research assistanships in the development of educational technologies and development of adaptive mesh refinement algorithm in massively parallel systems for computational astrophysics.

My other activities includes the administration of several linux servers and a beowulf cluster running linux which we use for our research effort, development of web-based applications which you can read in my resume and portfolios, and other small projects that I do for fun.

In my spare time, I enjoy playing music, singing by myself or with a choir, and reading. Guitar and piano are my primary musical instruments, which I play regularly for our church service.
