Ronald Paul "Ron" Fedkiw (; born February 27, 1968) is a full professor in the Stanford University department of computer science and a leading researcher in the field of computer graphics, focusing on topics relating to physically based simulation of natural phenomena and level sets. His techniques have been employed in over twenty motion pictures. He has earned recognition at the 80th Academy Awards as well as from the National Academy for Science. His Oscar was awarded for developing techniques that enabled many technically sophisticated adaptations including the visual effects in 21st century movies in the Star Wars, Harry Potter, Terminator, and Pirates of the Caribbean franchises. Fedkiw has designed a platform that has been used to create many of the movie world's most advanced special effects since it was first used on the T-X character in ''Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines''. Although he has won an Oscar for his work, he does not design the visual effects that use his technique. Instead, he has developed a system that other award-winning technicians and engineers have used to create visual effects for some of the world's most expensive and highest-grossing movies. He is also a co-founder of PIVOT,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Founding )〕 which stands for "Personal Improvement Via Omniscient Technology". The stated mission of the company is to develop technology to help people achieve their personal goals of looking better, feeling better, and living better using omniscient technology.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Mission Statement )〕 == Early life and family == Fedkiw, who was born in Buffalo, New York, earned his B.S. and M.A. from University at Buffalo, The State University of New York in mathematics in 1990 and 1991 respectively.〔 Then, he received his Ph.D. in applied mathematics from UCLA in 1996.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ron Fedkiw )〕 His dissertation was chaired by Stanley Osher. He completed postdoctoral studies both at UCLA in Mathematics and at Caltech in Aeronautics before joining the Stanford Computer Science Department.〔 Fedkiw has two daughters: Brittany was born in 2000 and Briana was born in 2003.〔
