Distinguished Lecture SeriesPresentsRina TannenbaumGeorgia Institute of TechnologyAbstract:Abstract:
sciences and engineering. On the one hand, extensive research in the last two decades focused on the
chemical and physical properties of nanoscale metal and semiconductor materials and their potential
applications
recent insight into the genetic and molecular underpinnings of cellular bioprocesses, indicate an
immediate
resulting
of
component nanoscale structures that encompass the various functionalities necessary for the inâ€ï¿½situ,
simultaneous identification, mapping, targeting and destruction of cancer cells, which may afford the
opportunity of a paradigm shift in the area of cancer therapy. The lecture will be accessible to a broad
audienceBio:
Physical Chemistry from the Weizmann Institute of Science, and her D.Sc. in Chemical Engineering from

Title: The Radio for iPhone App ecosystem: A Case Study Speaker: Dr. Marco Papa (Intersect World LLC) Host: Prof. Ellis Horowitz Abstract:
With over 100,000 apps, 50,000 independent developers and two billion downloads, iPhone App development is one of the few job descriptions that have withstood the economy downturn. Many of the iPhone Apps make use of a number of Web Technologies: HTTP, HTML, XML, XSLT, JSON, CGI Perl, PHP, and Java. Using the Radio App for the iPhone as an example, this talk will provide a behind the scenes look at the role that these Web Technologies have had in helping develop, deliver, market, maintain and monitor one such application. Bio:
Marco Papa is currently Chief Technologist and Manager of Training and Research at the Los Angeles Superior Court, the largest Court system in the world. He is also a lecturer in Web Technologies at USC and the owner of Intersect World LLC, an IP consulting and iPhone development company. He received a BS in Electronic Engineering from the University of Bologna, Italy, and a Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Southern California. From 1994 to 2002 Dr. Papa held the positions of CTO at Luckman Interactive and CareerPath, and Vice President of Engineering at US Interactive and Xceed.
