starburst Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences BEARS Conference UC Berkeley
Student Technical Achievement in Research Series (STARS)

Advanced Program

To be held in conjunction with the
Berkeley EECS Annual Research Symposium (BEARS)

February 27, 2004
2:00pm 120A Bechtel Engineering Center

This year we will hold a student research track at the new Berkeley EECS Annual Research Symposium (BEARS), which will be attended by faculty, students, industry researchers, and select press. Student-authored papers were solicited in all areas of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences. An expedited conference review process was conducted by a program committee affiliated with the department.  The program is extremely selective, with eight papers chosen from a total of 38 very high quality submissions.  We hope you enjoy this small piece of the rich and varied research conducted by EECS graduate students.
