The 2000 edition of UW CSE's internet "capstone design course," taught by Professor Dan Weld. Students concentrated on the latest techniques for building scalable Internet systems such as search engines, communities, customized portal sites, and electronic commerce platforms.
Led by Gaetano Borriello, student teams used the hardware laboratory to design, simulate, construct, and debug substantial projects that included hardware, software, and communication components.
An overview of the UW Department of Computer Science & Engineering, featuring student projects and interviews with regional technology and education leaders. UW CSE is embarking on an ambitious fund-raising effort to construct a new facility, as the University of Washington's top capital priority.
The 1999 edition of UW CSE's "capstone design course" in embedded system design. Led by Professor Gaetano Borriello, students focused this year on "invisible computing" -- wireless home appliances. This course is supported by Rob Short, Intel Corporation, Motorola Mobile Data Systems, Philips Multimedia Center, Trimble Navigation, and the Xerox Palo Alto Research Center.
In a disgustingly brazen piece of self-promotion, we prepared a promo piece to be shown on the new video scoreboard at the University of Washington's Husky Stadium.
The 1998 edition of UW CSE's "capstone design course" in software system design. Led by Professor John Zahorjan and Microsoft developer Dennis Canady, teams of UW CSE students learn commercial software development methodology and synthesize knowledge from a variety of previous courses by designing, implementing, documenting, and demonstrating 3-D multi-player distributed videogames built using VC++, Visual SourceSafe, and DirectX.
The 1998 edition of UW CSE's Computer Engineering "capstone design course," in which teams of students undertake embedded system design and implementation projects -- this year focused on personal digital assistants, with support from Rob Short, Intel Corporation, Motorola Mobile Data Systems, Philips Multimedia Center, Texas Instruments, Trimble Navigation, and the Xerox Palo Alto Research Center.
An integrated version of the three preceding videos: software system design (begins at 00:51), computer animation (begins at 05:08), and embedded system design (begins at 09:55).
The Alliance for Education presented the University of Washington with its 1997 "A+ Partnership Award" for Outstanding Contributions to the Seattle Public Schools. Special recognition went to Ed Lazowska of the UW Department of Computer Science & Engineering and Steve Corbato, Scott Mah, and Bill Mar of the UW Office of Computing & Communications, for their work in designing and implementing a metropolitan-area network for the Seattle School District. This video was prepared by KOMO TV and shown at the awards ceremony.
Three teams of CSE undergraduates, led by Professor John Zahorjan and professional software developer Dennis Canady from Microsoft, learned commercial software development methodology and synthesized knowledge from a variety of previous courses by designing, implementing, documenting, and demonstrating 3-D multi-player distributed videogames built using VC++, Visual SourceSafe, and DirectX.
