Bedrich Benes (born November 10, 1967) is a computer scientist and a researcher in Computer Graphics. He is a Professor of Computer Graphics Technology at Purdue University and Computer Science (by courtesy) the Director of the High Performance Computer Graphics Laboratory[1] at Purdue University. He was a member of numerous program committees of various conferences including ACM Siggraph and Eurographics and he was a papers chair of Eurographics 2017. He is editor in chief of Computer Graphics Forum [2] and associate editor of Computers & Graphics.[3] He is known for his work in geometric modeling, procedural modeling, scientific visualization, and software optimizations in digital manufacturing.
Education
Benes received his Ph.D. in 1998 from Czech Technical University where he studied Computer Science and Computer Graphics and his M.S. degree in 1991 from the same institution in the same fields.
