Wed, Oct 31, Noon: Switching Power with the Computer

Michael Hines (a doctoral student in the CS department) will be talking tomorrow (Wed, Oct 31) about a hands on project about using a computer to control a power switch. It should be a fun talk and will be held in the new CS department research area (the old South Pod).

Notes on the talk are online: http://hinespot.net/circuit.php

Skipping a week

With the Ph.D. Qualification exams, it's probably best to skip the talk that would have been made on Oct 24.

Therefore, the next talk will be on Oct. 31 at noon, and it should be held in the conference room in the new CS research lab area (the G section of the Engineering Building)
