  <description><![CDATA[We increasingly need to process large and complex data volumes to enable  near-real-time informed human decisions or automated response actions. 
Current limitations in I/O and processing capabilities hinder the timely 
acquisition, processing, and presentation information to decision makers 
for rapid response. Multi-core processors, such as the Cell B.E. 
processor, provide an unprecedented computational capability to curb 
this data deluge. In this talk I will describe the challenge i...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[It is well understood that Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) are extremely
susceptible to a variety of attacks. Many security schemes have been
proposed that depend on identifying nodes that are exhibiting malicious
behavior such as packet dropping, packet modification, and packet
misrouting.  We argue that in general, this problem can be viewed as an
instance of detecting nodes whose behavior is an outlier when compared to
others. In this work, we propose a gossip-based outlier detection...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Gridding in remote sensing must re-project observations from their
original coordinate system based on satellite orbit and attitude to a grid
defined by Earth coordinates.  Primitive methods assume that observations
are located at points on Earth and typically average observations in grid
cells, or interpolate geolocated observations.  These approaches are
inaccurate, because they do not make use of the instrument’s footprint
geometry, and spatial response.  Observation Coverage (Obsc...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[The sixth annual UMBC Computer Mania Day will be held at UMBC on Saturday, May 3, 2008.  The event provides a half day of technology-related activities for up to 800 middle school girls and their parents and teachers.  Girls are the focus, but boys are welcome. This program is designed to provide a broad-based introduction to the ways in which different careers make use of technology. Several sessions are planned including ones on robotics and on social computing.  There is also a separate ad...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Social network systems on the Internet, such MySpace and LinkedIn, are 
growing in popularity around the world.  The level of such activity is 
now comparable to that associated with email and blogs.  Our research 
addresses the question of whether people in different demographic groups 
use these systems in the same way.  We also examined the relationship 
between membership in on-line social networks and face-to-face networks, 
  especially with respect to different age cohorts.  Olde...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Policies in BGP are implemented as routing configurations that determine
how route information is shared among neighbors to control traffic flows
across networks. This process is generally template driven, device
centric, limited in its expressibility, time consuming and error prone
which can lead to configurations where policies are violated or there are
unintended consequences that are difficult to detect and resolve. In this
work, we propose an alternate mechanism for policy based ne...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Peer-to-peer(P2P) computing is emerging as a new distributed computing 
paradigm for novel applications that involves exchange of information 
among  peers with little centralized coordination. Analyzing data 
distributed in P2P networks requires peer-to-peer data mining algorithms 
that can mine the data without data centralization. However, 
replicating  result of centralized data mining in an exact fashion is 
often communication-wise expensive. Approximate algorithms can be a

  <description><![CDATA[I present a new information retrieval framework based on set-based
preference learning that provides users with individually customized
search results. Advances in information storage and retrieval have
enabled computer users to search immense data repositories for very
specific content. While newer information retrieval algorithms can
provide a much richer result set than traditional term-weighting
methods, they adopt a one-size-fits-all approach. By analyzing a
user's prior sea...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Has anyone considered the possibility that it's just not fun any more?  -- Don Knuth, October 2006

Over the last five years, computing education in most developed countries has faced a seeming paradox: despite projections that the field offers tremendous employment opportunities and extraordinary growth potential for the foreseeable future, student interest in pursuing computing degrees has plummeted.  In response, many educators have called for a massive overhaul of computing curricula to...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Research in data mining has led to advanced knowledge discovery
technologies and applications. In this talk, we will discuss some
emerging research issues for advanced technologies and
applications in data mining and discuss some recent progress in
this direction, including (1) exploration of the power of pattern
mining, (2) analysis of multidimensional, heterogeneous and
evolving information network, (3) mining of fast changing data
streams, (4) mining of moving object data, RFID data...]]></description>
