The theme of the annual Alan J. Perlis Symposium at Yale University April 26 will be methods of drawing out useful information from the avalanche of data created by advances in networking and computing.
All talks are free and open to the public.
This year's symposium explores ideas and methods that may help us to extract useful information from this abundance of raw data. The symposium will include four, one-hour talks, a panel discussion and a reception. The late Alan Perlis was one of the founders of the Department of Computer Science at Yale and was known worldwide for his pioneering work in computer programing languages.
