Compilers Operating systems and Networks light Seminar
Fall 2001

198:604, index 25069, section 01

Overview:

This light seminar will present state of the art research, seminal papers, and local research projects in the areas of compilers, operating systems and networks.

Many results, designs and methodologies are applicable across these three experimentally-oriented fields. We thus expect an interesting and diverse discussion between the participating groups with regard to a broad range of research problems and solutions.

Participating Faculty:

Ricardo Bianchini
Liviu Iftode
Ulrich Kremer
Richard Martin
Badri Nath
Thu Nguyen
Barbara Ryder

Prerequisites:

Students should either have a graduate level course in one of compilers, operating systems or networks, or be currently enrolled in a graduate course in these areas.Students without a deep understanding of one these areas should be prepared to ask many questions during the seminar.

Expected Work:

One research paper will be presented each week. Students are expected to regularly attend the seminar and actively participate in the discussions for credit.

Schedule:

Time: Thursdays, 2:30PM-3:30PM
Room: Hill 120
