More than 100 researchers and students from across Canada and around the world attended the 53rd annual Canadian Operator Algebras Symposium (COSY), which took place from May 26-30 at the University of Waterloo.
Their paper explored intermittent interaction in digital fabrication, particularly 3D printing.
The Waterloo team analyzed a range of YouTube videos that focused on learning music by ear and identified four simple ways music learning technology can better aid prospective musicians.
The award is given annually to individuals who have made “significant and sustained contributions to mathematics education in Canada.”
Businesses need to not only prepare for quantum attacks, but also ready their organizations to tap into the economic benefit of adopting quantum technologies.
The award recognizes the research team’s paper, Vizing’s Theorem in Near-Linear Time, which introduces a randomized algorithm that computes a (∆ + 1)-edge colouring in near-linear time with high probability, a near-optimal result for this classic problem in graph theory.
Congratulations to Leyi Yan and Hadas Barabash, the winners of the 2025 Jessie W.H. Zou Memorial Award for Excellence in Undergraduate Research.
In addition to two students who wish to remain anonymous, the awardees include Jerry Bao, Kacie Phillippo, and Yujie Wen.
Disney Lam’s (BMath ’14) father supported her love of technology from a young age, giving her tasks like setting up computer networks in the family’s home.
Don Cowan, a distinguished professor emeritus at Waterloo, explained that Wes Graham, who was known as the “father of computing” at Waterloo, wanted to make using computers “as natural to people as pen and paper.”
