Cornell Systems Lunch

Spring 2002

Emin Gun Sirer and Andrew Myers

Sponsored by the Information Assurance Institute (IAI),
Computing and Information Science, Cornell
This spring, we will continue to read recent papers in systems, particularly in operating systems, P2P distributed systems, networking and security.

We will meet once a week on mondays at noon in the systems lab (Upson 331). We are planning to offer free lunch for the participants, contingent upon their participation in the paper discussion (i.e. there is no such thing as a free lunch).

The systems lunch is open to all Cornell students interested in systems. First-year graduate students are especially welcome.

Past systems seminars: Fall 01
