UC Davis Security Lab Lunch Seminar (aka "SecLunch")

Quarter: Spring 2008
Time: Thursdays, 1:30-2:30
Location: Kemper 3083
Organizers: Sean Peisert & Matt Bishop
Course Credit: CRN 20906, 1 unit available; see Prof. Bishop

This weekly seminar is for the entire security lab: students, staff, and faculty. There are several purposes for the seminar:

1. A chance for everyone in the security lab to learn about the research that's going on around them and the people who are doing the research
2. A useful and safe venue for people to give practice talks
3. A useful and safe venue for people to discuss their research and get ideas and feedback in an informal environment

If students want a unit of credit for participating, please send Matt Bishop a note, or come see him.

Please sign up, attend, and volunteer to speak! Since the point is for everyone in the lab to know what everyone else in the lab is doing, and for speakers to receive as much useful feedback as possible, this will work best when the entire lab is present.
