The emergence of stupendously large matrices in applications such as data mining and large-scale scientific simulations has rendered the classical software frameworks and numerical methods inadequate in many situations. In this talk, I will demonstrate how building domain-specific compilers and reformulating classical mathematical methods significantly improve the performance and scalability of large-scale applications on modern computing platforms.

Most software contains bugs, unintended behavior that causes the program to misbehave or crash. Developers wish to avoid bugs, but are easily led astray by the complexity of modern programming languages. How can we help them? A possible solution is to develop program analysis techniques that can automatically reason about the behavior of programs and pinpoint potential problems.

While technologies exist that are either marketed for or can be adapted to the monitoring of toddlers and school-age children, parents' perspectives on these technologies have received only limited attention.

Despite the ubiquity of touch-based input and the availability of increasingly computationally powerful touchscreen devices, there has been comparatively little work on enhancing basic canonical gestures such as swipe-to-pan and pinch-to-zoom.
