Master’s Thesis Presentation • Data Systems — Serverless Data Analytics with Flint

Youngbin Kim, Master’s candidate
David R. Cheriton School of Computer Science

AbstractServerless architectures organized around loosely-coupled function invocations represent an emerging design for many applications. Recent work mostly focuses on user-facing products and event-driven processing pipelines. 

Pak Hay Chan, Master’s candidate

We consider a new problem of designing a network with small $s$-$t$ effective resistance. In this problem, we are given an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ where each edge $e$ has a cost $c_e$ and a resistance $r_e$, two designated vertices $s,t \in V$, and a cost budget $k$.

David R. Cheriton School of Computer Science

This thesis contributes to two areas. The first is the study of parallel repetition theorems and concentration bounds for nonlocal games and quantum interactive proofs. 

We make the following contributions:

Seminar • Algorithms and Complexity — Counting Subwords and Regular Languages

Finn Lidbetter, Master’s candidate
David R. Cheriton School of Computer Science

Let x and y be words. We consider the languages whose words z are those for which the numbers of occurrences of x and y, as subwords of z, are the same (resp., the number of x's is less than the number of y's, resp., is less than or equal). In this talk we will give a necessary and sufficient condition on x and y for these languages to be regular, and we show how to check this condition efficiently.
