Liwu Li, (March 24, 1947 - April 21, 2005 ) was a Chinese Canadian computer scientist and professor in School of Computer Science at University of Windsor, Windsor, Ontario, Canada. He was affiliated with the Nankai University, Tianjin, China and moved to Canada during the 80s. In 1989, Liwu Li defended his Ph.D. thesis at University of Alberta under Tony Marsland on the topic of Probabilistic Analysis of Search, including minimax search pathology and probalility-based game-tree pruning. His further research interests covered object-oriented analysis and design, object-oriented language design and implementation, as most recently the π-calculus in Java.
