An informal database seminar is held every Monday, 4:00-5:00 pm, at E2 397. The seminar primarily involves presentations on the research done in the group as well as discussions on database related topics. We also welcome presentations from industry partners and from researchers outside of the database group.
The current schedule of the seminar is listed below. If you are interested in giving a presentation on one of the open dates, or if you want to change the date of your presentation, please contact Wang-Chiew Tan or Neoklis Polyzotis.
