Seminar • Bioinformatics • Applied Biological Sequence Analysis with a Theoretical Flavour

Please note: This seminar will take place in DC 1304.

Jim Shaw, PhD candidate
Department of Mathematics, University of Toronto

DNA is life’s instruction manual, but mathematically, DNA is simply a string over an alphabet of four letters. DNA can now easily be read into a computer, and the associated string-processing algorithms are being leveraged by biologists for exciting discoveries. However, this has created a flood of data in the petabytes, requiring modern and faster tools.

Seminar • Programming Languages • General Techniques for Efficient Concurrent Data Structures

Please note: This seminar will take place in DC 1304.

Yuanhao Wei, Postdoctoral Researcher
Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, MIT

Concurrent programming is becoming increasingly important as systems are scaling up by increasing the number of processors rather than the speed of a single processor. However, concurrent programming can be very difficult and error-prone.
