Computer Science Events

Two concurrent one-hour panel sessions with Q&A, one in the humanities/social sciences and one in the natural/computational sciences, followed by a dessert reception.

Eddy Zhang (William & Mary) discusses compiler and runtime support for the rapid increase of parallelism, the rise of heterogeneity and the diversity of memory devices.

Lev Reyzin (Georgia Tech) will discuss learning interaction network and the classical multiarmed bandit problem.

Collin McMillan (W&M) discusses structural information such as function calls and API usage to locate relevant source code, which can be reused in programmers' projects.

Hank Hoffmann (MIT) discusses a radical approach that is capable of meeting the constraints of modern computing systems by adding a self-awareness dimension to computational models.

Speaker: Gwen Spencer, Cornell University

Learn about the importance of doing an internship from a panel of representatives at three organizations offering internships for computer science students. You will also have an opportunity to network individually with each panelist.

Kirk W. Cameron (Virginia Tech) discusses the motivation and challenges facing the Green Computing movement in HPC.

Yizhou Sun (UIUC) discusses the problem of mining heterogeneous information networks, by leveraging the semantic meanings of the types of objects and links in a network.

Students who have conducted research in the sciences will present their work at the 18th Annual Science Symposium.

Christoph Treude (University of Victoria) discusses how social media artifacts such as tags, feeds and dashboards, bridge lightweight and heavyweight task management in software development.
