Research Group Projects and Descriptions

The Context-Aware Computing group uses "context knowledge" such as where we are, how we feel and what we have done to drive machines to use our intentions to work with us.

The CalTech/MIT Voting Technology Project was established by Caltech president David Baltimore and MIT president Charles Vest in December 2000 to prevent a recurrence of the problems that threatened the 2000 U.S. Presidential Election. Specific tasks of the project include evaluating the current state of reliability and uniformity of U.S. voting systems; establishing uniform attributes and quantitative guidelines for performance and reliability of voting systems; and proposing specific uniform guidelines and requirements for reliable voting systems.
