Research presentations, posters and demos will occur on the first day, while the second day will be primarily devoted to the recruiting and interviewing of our graduate and undergraduate students. New this year for the meeting are afternoon Feedback Discussions and a Venture Capital Panel after dinner on Research Day. The entire meeting for both days will be held in the Paul G. Allen Center for Computer Science & Engineering.

Thursday, November 3 - Research Overviews, Talks, Demonstrations, and Posters

The first day will begin with a short state-of-the-department overview that will include initiatives and research begun over the past year. The bulk of the day will consist research talks (in parallel tracks), as well as poster presentations and demonstrations, industry feedback sessions, and a reception and dinner followed by a Venture Capital Panel. The day will allow our affiliates to meet many of our students at the talks and demonstration/poster sessions.
