Talk Title: Space-efficient Algorithms for Data Streams by Vladimir Braverman
Abstract: Data streams is an important area of theoretical computer science with many practical applications. We will define the basic model of data streams and will explain some fundamental algorithms and methods that shaped the area of data streams. Also, we will survey some of our recent results for data streams and discuss current challenges and open problems.
