Winter DASSL 2018
Winter DASSL is a special session of DASSL with the specific goal of promoting scientific research and scholarship among undergraduate students, as well as introduce students to modern tools and processes in software and data engineering.
During the special session, students are introduced to a “research process” and are given opportunities to research, discuss, write, present, and solve problems related to data science and data-intensive systems.
All activities are carried out in the context of real-life applications so students learn and apply practical skills that can set them apart from other CS graduates.
Winter DASSL 2018 was held between Dec. 18 2017 and Jan. 24 2018. It focused mainly on the following topics in the context of a real-life application called ClassDB:
