Mathematics Education Seminar • Chaos and Power!

Francis Poulin, Department of Applied Mathematics
University of Waterloo

Years ago I co-designed a course called Environmental Informatics, AMATH/EARTH 310, which has since disappeared. The idea of this course was to bring applied math and earth science students together to learn about problems that overlap these two fields. One topic that I taught was chaos.

PhD Seminar • Human-Computer Interaction — Characterizing and Predicting Email Triage and Deferral

Bahareh Sarrafzadeh, PhD candidate
David R. Cheriton School of Computer Science

Email triage involves going through unhandled emails and deciding what to do with them. This familiar process can become increasingly challenging as the number of unhandled email grows. During a triage session, users commonly defer handling emails that they cannot immediately deal with to later. These deferred emails, are often related to tasks that are postponed until the user has more time or the right information to deal with them.
